Romans 8, I just heard this last week driving on the radio, the radio Bible teacher,

happened to have been passing through Romans 8 in his sermon that he was giving, and he said

something I completely agree with, and he said that out of all the chapters of the entire

Bible, that if you take the time to study Romans 8, it will be the greatest experience

of your life. And I agree with them, and one of the reasons why I agree with them is

because we are taking forever to get through chapter 8 for that very reason. It's so

deep, but if you and I get it, it'll transform our lives. What spirit lives in you? This is

part two of that message, and I will read the odd number verses, if you guys will pick it

up in the even, Romans chapter 8, beginning in verse 9, but you are not in the flesh,

but in the spirit. If indeed the spirit of God dwells in you, now if anyone does not have

the spirit of Christ, he is not his.

But if the spirit of him, that's the Holy Spirit of Christ, lives in you, who raised

Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give

life to your mortal bodies through his spirit, who dwells in you. Look at verse 11,

but if the spirit of him, by the way, the word is translated correctly in other

translations, other versions, since the spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead

dwells in you, he who raised Christ from the dead. Think about that. The Bible says

that under the command of the Father was the Holy Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead.

Is that amazing? Think for a moment. Jesus in the flesh trusted the Holy Spirit

to raise him from the dead. Jesus did that. He brought himself to the place in

humanity. Why? Because that's what you and I've got to do. We've got to trust

that the spirit of God will raise us from the dead when the resurrection comes.
