Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. ... You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.

Continuing in the Freedom Chapter, I find myself wondering why we spend so much time and energy preaching Romans 1 and so little on exhorting the saints to revel in the promises of freedom in Romans 8. As I look at this passage, I only have to consider one simple question, “Does the Holy Spirit reside within me or not?”

The answer is YES! I am a transformed individual, not a finished product but transformed by the power of the Spirit working in and through me. So, buckle down and continue the transformation.
