In Christ with Pastor Randy Hollis
Key Scriptures
Isaiah 28:12 NLT
God has told his people,“Here is a place of rest; let the weary rest here. This is a place of quiet rest.” But they would not listen.
2 Corinthians 5:21 ESV
For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him (InChrist) we might become the righteousness of God.
2 Corinthians 5:17 ESVTherefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
Romans 8:1 ESV
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Romans 7:15-18,21-24 ESV
15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. 16 Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. 17 So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. 18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 21 So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. 22 For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, 23 but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members. 24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?
Romans 8:5,7-10 ESV
5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 7 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 9 "You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit," 10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Romans 6:3 ESV
3 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
