Make War With Sin
April 6, 2025
About this message
Why is it so hard to do the right thing—even when we want to? In Romans 7, Paul gives voice to the tension we all feel: the battle between our flesh and The Spirit. There’s a war going on inside us—and it’s not just a matter of willpower. It’s the reality of sin nature—something that was never meant to be there in the first place.
But here’s the truth: Sin isn’t an identity to wear; it’s an enemy to fight. What God designs for life, Satan tries to hijack for destruction. Left unchecked, sin leads to shame, despair, and bondage. But through Jesus, we don’t have to live under its control. Tune in as Romans 7 shows us how to stop surrendering to sin—and start making war.
