Paul contrasts the life he now lives with the life he used to live under the law. He now lives for Christ in the flesh through faith in Jesus as the Son of God. This life of faith provides freedom from the law, sin, and self so Paul can serve Christ. Paul urges others to also live for Christ now rather than waiting until someday, as someday may be too late to live in Christ without first living for Christ.

Victory over Sin | RCCG. Living Faith, Kassel
1. Claiming the promises of God.
2. Making the right choice.
After salvation, the deep and sincere cry of the believer should be for holiness, to be like Christ, to overcome sin and to live a blameless and holy life. Some Christians try to be holy in their own way, and when they fail in the process, become discouraged and give up wanting to be holy. They become fearful of preaching holiness. The bible teaches glorious victory over sin for every believer. 1John 5:4, John was not speaking about victory in Heaven but of victory on earth; daily victory over the world and the lusts thereof.
Further, believers may have the “right” to do anything, but not everything is beneficial (1 Corinthians 10:23). Paul used the illustration of eating meat that had been dedicated to idols. To him, such a dedication meant nothing since idols are not real gods. However, he would abstain from eating meat for the good of others who might sin by following his example. Believers serve the Lord both through their personal lives and in their actions toward others.
This lesson will help answer the following questions about baptism:
What is baptism?
What does the New Testament teach about baptism?
Is water baptism required to be saved?
Do those who teach baptism is for salvation affirm salvation by works?

Are you looking for peace? The kind of peace that is not affected by our daily circumstances? Paul shows us in Colossians 3 how we can make our own jails by giving in to our old self, rather than putting on our new self. The result is an everlasting peace that goes beyond our daily work and the difficulties of life. Found out how to accept this peace that God wants to give.

What does it take to begin a relationship with God? Devote yourself to unselfish religious deeds? Become a better person so that God will accept you?

The following principles will explain how you can personally begin a relationship with God, right now, through Jesus Christ...
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

1. "The Life Which I Now Live in the
Flesh"
Gal. 2:20
Paul contrasts the life he now lived with the life
he did and would live.
1. Did live under the law but no longer. (v. 19)
2. Now lives for Christ.
3. Would live with Christ.
Paul points out three marks of the life that he
now lived:
2. It Was a Life in Flesh. “I Live in the
Flesh”
•In the flesh without being after the flesh. (Gal
4:16ff; Rom. 8:1)
•In the flesh with its weaknesses. (cf. Matt. 26:41)
•Depend on Christ's blood of Christ. (1 John 1:7-
10).
•Depend on Lord's help. (Heb. 4:17,18).
•In the flesh with its relationships
3. It Was a Life of Faith. “I Live by Faith in the
Son of God”
•Faith in the Son rather than wisdom &
power of men. (1 Cor. 1:23,24; 2:5).
•Wisdom and power of gospel preached by
men (1 Cor. 2:5; Rom. 10:8,14-17)
•Faith in all its instructions and promises - to
church & individuals.
•Faith in Son rather than sight. (2 Cor. 5:6-8;
Rom. 10:6-8).
4. It Was a Life of Freedom. “I Am Crucified
with Christ”
•Crucified with Christ means freedom from
self. (“No longer I, but..
•Crucified with Christ means freedom from
O.T. Law. (Gal. 2:16,19;5:4)
•Crucified with Christ means freedom from
sin. (Rom. 6:1-7)
•Crucified with Christ means freedom to
serve. (Rom. 7:17-18).
5. Conclusion
• Remember, the life you live must be lived NOW - “which I NOW
live... You my be planning to live this kind of life SOMEDAY, before
you die. Someday may be too late.
• Maybe you think you can die in Christ without living in Christ. It
can't be done.
• Maybe you are planning to live for Christ when things are
different:
• When it is more convenient. It may never be.
• When you can know that you will live without sin. It will never be.
• When you get all your problems and hindrances solved. It won't
happen.
• You must make up your mind to serve the Lord now.
