The seventeenth-century minister Thomas Jacomb once wrote of Romans 8, “From first to last, it is high gospel.” Beginning with “no condemnation” and ending with the assurance that nothing can separate us from God’s love, it is one of the most magisterial and encouraging chapters in all of Scripture. In this message, Alistair Begg begins a short tour through its profound depths, helping us to grasp the solution to the predicament of sin, the necessity of being “in Christ,” the relationship between freedom and the law, and the call to walk in newness of life by God’s Spirit.
1There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.1 2For the law of hthe Spirit of life ihas set you2 free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. 3For jGod has done what the law, kweakened by the flesh, lcould not do. mBy sending his own Son nin the likeness of sinful flesh and ofor sin,3 he condemned sin in the flesh, 4in order that pthe righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, qwho walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5For rthose who live according to the flesh set their minds on sthe things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on tthe things of the Spirit. 6For to set uthe mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7For the mind that is set on the flesh is vhostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; windeed, it cannot. 8Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
