Who will Save Us? Romans 7:8-25



Who will Save Us?
Romans 7:8-25

1.         Remember - Romans 6-7-8 is the key to overcoming sin
a.    Today is the day that Paul is going to reveal the final piece of that key
b.    But before we get there, he has a few final words about - THE LAW.
2.         What is “The Law?”
a.    Most people when they think of the law, think of the Ten Commandments (which Jesus summarized)

Jesus said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.  Matthew 22:37-40

3.         True - if you love God, you won’t break the first four commandments,
a.    if you love others, your won’t break the last six!
b.    Love God, love others, who would get upset about those two statements?
4.         But people do get uptight about the Ten Commandments

Mr Perfect Must Die
Romans 7:1-6

There was once a woman that was a perfectionist in everything she did, and so prayed “Lord, please send me the perfect man.”  And the Lord answered her prayer.

One evening a young man knocked on the door, politely asked if he could speak to the young women, and she first laid eyes on him, she knew “this is my perfect man!”
