1. Topic : Set You Free
Scripture : Romans 7:18-21 (NIV)
18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that
is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is
good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good
I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep
on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no
longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. 21
So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil
is right there with me.

Jesus, 2 because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives
life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
Kaya nga, wala nang kahatulang parusa sa mga taong nakipag-isa na
kay Cristo Jesus. 2 Sa pamamagitan ng kautusan ng Espiritung
nagbibigay-buhay dahil sa pakikiisa natin kay Cristo-Jesus, pinalaya na
ako mula sa kautusan ng kasalanan at kamatayan.

Therefore, if we are still living under the sins, our life is in
danger we will put to death.

life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For the law of the Spirit in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law
of sin and death.

21 So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right
there with me. 22 For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; 23 but I
see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind
and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. 24 What
a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is
subject to death? 25 Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus
Christ our Lord!
6. 2. Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus
Romans 8:38-39
38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither
angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor
any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in
all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of
God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

can never be separated from God’s love.

kundi nasa ilalim ng kagandahang-loob ng Diyos.

1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of
witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so
easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out

faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its
shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

ang ating paningin kay Jesus. Sa kanya nakasalalay ang ating
pananampalataya mula simula hanggang katapusan. Dahil sa
kagalakang naghihintay sa kanya, hindi niya inalintana ang kahihiyan ng
pagkamatay sa krus, at siya ngayo'y nakaupo sa kanan ng trono ng
Diyos.
