We were born into sin, thanks to Adam and Eve, our ancestors. And to make it worse, we add our own sins to the mess of our lives. But there is a way of escape: Crucify the flesh and be resurrected to new life.

2. Hebrews 6:1-3 (NIV)
Therefore let us leave the elementary
teachings about Christ and go on to
maturity, not laying again the
foundation of repentance from acts
that lead to death, and of faith in God,
instruction about baptisms, the laying
on of hands, the resurrection of the
dead, and eternal judgment.
And God permitting, we will do so.

5. Q1:
Am I dead or alive?

6. Q1: Am I dead or alive?
A1: We are all born dead -
spiritually dead, because
we all come from Adam,
the original sinner.
R1: Genesis 2:16,17; 3:6,7,17-19,21

7. Genesis 2:16,17 And the LORD God commanded
the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in
the garden; but you must not eat from the
tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for
when you eat of it you will surely die."
Genesis 3:6,7 When the woman saw that the
fruit of the tree was good for food and
pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for
gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She
also gave some to her husband, who was with
her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of
them were opened, and they realized they
were naked;

8. Genesis 3:17-19,21 To Adam he said, "Because
you listened to your wife and ate from the tree
about which I commanded you, 'You must not
eat of it,' "Cursed is the ground because of
you; through painful toil you will eat of it all
the days of your life. It will produce thorns and
thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of
the field. By the sweat of your brow you will
eat your food until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken; for dust you are
and to dust you will return." The LORD God
made garments of skin for Adam and his wife
and clothed them.

9. Q2:
Adam and Eve, my
ancestors, were stupid
sinners, yes, but I'm a
good person. How can I
be dead?

10. Q2: Adam and Eve, my ancestors, were
stupid sinners, yes, but I'm a good
person. How can I be dead?
A2: We are all spiritually
dead because we all sin.
Our flesh can't stop sinning
until it is dead.
R2: Romans 2:29-32; 5:12-14, 6:23

11. Romans 2:29-32 They have become filled with
every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and
depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife,
deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers,
God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful;
they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey
their parents; they are senseless, faithless,
heartless, ruthless. Although they know God's
righteous decree that those who do such
things deserve death, they not only continue to
do these very things but also approve of those
who practice them.

12. Romans 5:12-14 Therefore, just as sin entered
the world through one man, and death
through sin, and in this way death came to all
men, because all sinned - for before the law
was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not
taken into account when there is no law.
Nevertheless, death reigned from the time of
Adam to the time of Moses, even over those
who did not sin by breaking a command, as did
Adam, who was a pattern of the one to come.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but
the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our
Lord.

13. Q3:
Can we become
spiritually alive by
obeying the laws of God?

14. Q3: Can we become spiritually alive by
obeying the laws of God?
A3: Moses brought the Law of
God to give people hope, but
when our flesh hears the Law,
it only becomes more sinful.
We need to die to the Law.
R3: Romans 7:1-6

15. Romans 7:1-6 Do you not know, brothers—for I am
speaking to men who know the law—that the law has
authority over a man only as long as he lives? For
example, by law a married woman is bound to her
husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies,
she is released from the law of marriage. So then, if she
marries another man while her husband is still alive,
she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she
is released from that law and is not an adulteress, even
though she marries another man. So, my brothers, you
also died to the law through the body of Christ, that
you might belong to another, to him who was raised
from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God.
For when we were controlled by the sinful nature, the
sinful passions aroused by the law were at work in our
bodies, so that we bore fruit for death. But now, by
dying to what once bound us, we have been released
from the law so that we serve in the new way of the
Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.

16. Q4:
It's Adam's fault and it's
the Law's fault that I am
a sinner. It's not my fault!
So there's nothing to
worry about, right?

17. Q4: It's Adam's fault and it's the Law's fault
that I am a sinner. It's not my fault! So
there's nothing to worry about, right?
A4: Actually, yes, you should
worry. If you execute the
sinner in you, God's will be
happy with you. If you don't,
God's wrath is waiting for you.
R4: Ephesians 2:1-6

18. Ephesians 2:1-6 As for you, you were dead in your
transgressions and sins, in which you used to live
when you followed the ways of this world and of
the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who
is now at work in those who are disobedient. All
of us also lived among them at one time,
gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and
following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest,
we were by nature objects of wrath. But because
of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy,
made us alive with Christ even when we were
dead in transgressions— it is by grace you have
been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and
seated us with him in the heavenly realms in
Christ Jesus,

19. Q5:
What are we supposed to
do, then, with this dead
body, this sinful nature
that we're living in?

20. Q5: What are we supposed to do, then,
with this dead body, this sinful nature
that we're living in?
A5: Crucify it! Crucify it! Then
bury it.
R5: Galatians 5:24,25; Colossians 3:5-7 and
Romans 6:3,4

21. Galatians 5:24,25 Those who belong to Christ
Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its
passions and desires. Since we live by the
Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Colossians 3:5-7 Put to death, therefore,
whatever belongs to your earthly nature:
sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires
and greed, which is idolatry. Because of these,
the wrath of God is coming. You used to walk
in these ways, in the life you once lived.

22. Colossians 2:12 having been buried with him in
baptism and raised with him through your
faith in the power of God, who raised him
from the dead.
Romans 6:3,4 Or don't you know that all of us
who were baptized into Christ Jesus were
baptized into his death? We were therefore
buried with him through baptism into death in
order that, just as Christ was raised from the
dead through the glory of the Father, we too
may live a new life.

23. Q6:
What happens after we
execute our sinful nature?

24. Q6: What happens after we execute our
sinful nature?
A6: It has to be resurrected.
Just like Jesus died for our
sins, we have to die to our
sinful nature. And just like
Jesus rose back to life, we will
also rise to receive new life.
R6: Romans 6:5-12

25. Romans 6:5-12 If we have been united with him like
this in his death, we will certainly also be united
with him in his resurrection. For we know that our
old self was crucified with him so that the body of
sin might be done away with, that we should no
longer be slaves to sin - because anyone who has
died has been freed from sin. Now if we died with
Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
For we know that since Christ was raised from the
dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has
mastery over him. The death he died, he died to
sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to
God. In the same way, count yourselves dead to
sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do
not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you
obey its evil desires.

26. Q7:
Who can make us alive
again?

27. Q7: Who can make us alive again?
A7: If you have faith in the
power of God, then God
will make you alive with
Christ.
R7: Colossians 2:11-13

28. Colossians 2:11-13 In him you were also
circumcised, in the putting off of the sinful
nature, not with a circumcision done by the
hands of men but with the circumcision done
by Christ, having been buried with him in
baptism and raised with him through your
faith in the power of God, who raised him
from the dead. When you were dead in your
sins and in the uncircumcision of your sinful
nature, God made you alive with Christ. He
forgave us all our sins.

29. Q8:
What is this death to our
sinful nature, burial in
water baptism, and
rising to new life called?

30. Q8: What is this death to our sinful
nature, burial in water baptism, and
rising to new life called?
A8: It's called being born
again. When we do this, we
get a new life. We get a
new birthday!
R8: John 3:3-7

31. John 3:3-7 In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the
truth, no one can see the kingdom of God
unless he is born again." "How can a man be
born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked.
"Surely he cannot enter a second time into his
mother's womb to be born!" Jesus answered,
"I tell you the truth, no one can enter the
kingdom of God unless he is born of water and
the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the
Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be
surprised at my saying, 'You must be born
again.'

32. Q9:
Since your sin nature, the
flesh that Adam gave
you, is killed, do you still
have to live like a normal
person?

33. Q9: Since your sin nature, the flesh that Adam
gave you, is killed, do you still have to live like a
normal person?
A9: No! Your flesh nature is dead
and buried. You are no longer a
person of this world, of this
country, of this people. You are
now a citizen of heaven, a child
of God. You are free! But, don't
act like your dead self!
R9: Colossians 2:20,21 and 3:1-9

34. Colossians 2:20-21 Since you died with Christ to
the basic principles of this world, why, as
though you still belonged to it, do you submit
to its rules: "Do not handle! Do not taste! Do
not touch!”?

35. Colossians 3:1-10 Since, then, you have been raised
with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where
Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your
minds on things above, not on earthly things. For
you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in
God. When Christ, who is your life, appears, then
you also will appear with him in glory. Put to death,
therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature:
sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and
greed, which is idolatry. Because of these, the
wrath of God is coming. You used to walk in these
ways, in the life you once lived. But now you must
rid yourselves of all such things as these: anger,
rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from your
lips. Do not lie to each other, since you have taken
off your old self with its practices and have put on
the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge
in the image of its Creator.

36. Q10:
The sin nature has been
killed and buried, but
does that mean it that it
has disappeared and will
never bother you again?

37. Q10: The sin nature has been killed and buried,
but does that mean it that it has disappeared
and will never bother you again?
A10: Unfortunately, our sin nature
does not die easily. It doesn't
want to die. It wants to keep on
controlling us. That's why God
gives us His Holy Spirit-to give us
more power to overcome sin.
R10: Romans 8:6-11

38. Romans 8:6-11 The mind of sinful man is death, but
the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace;
the sinful mind is hostile to God. It does not
submit to God's law, nor can it do so. Those
controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.
You, however, are controlled not by the sinful
nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in
you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of
Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is
in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your
spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the
Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is
living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead
will also give life to your mortal bodies through
his Spirit, who lives in you.

39. Q11:
Being born again is a one
time event, but day after
day, how do we keep on
living as the children of
God should live?

40. Q11: Being born again is a one time event,
but day after day, how do we keep on living
as the children of God should live?
A11: We live day by day by the
leading of the Holy Spirit,
which means every day we
need to pray, listen to the
Spirit speak to our hearts,
and follow His direction.
R11: Romans 8:13,14

41. Romans 8:13,14 For if you live according to the
sinful nature, you will die; but if by the Spirit
you put to death the misdeeds of the body,
you will live, because those who are led by the
Spirit of God are sons of God.

42. Q12:
What is our goal, our
purpose in life as the
children of God?

43. Q12: What is our goal, our purpose in life
as the children of God?
A12: Our goal is simply to
live a righteous life, which
means to always do what is
right. Jesus Christ made
that possible for us.
R12: Romans 5:17-19

44. Romans 5:17-19 For if, by the trespass of the one
man, death reigned through that one man,
how much more will those who receive God's
abundant provision of grace and of the gift of
righteousness reign in life through the one
man, Jesus Christ. Consequently, just as the
result of one trespass was condemnation for
all men, so also the result of one act of
righteousness was justification that brings life
for all men. For just as through the
disobedience of the one man the many were
made sinners, so also through the obedience
of the one man the many will be made
righteous.
