\"\"Romans (Program #35) – Being Freed from Sin, the Law and the Flesh<\/p>\n

Our destiny is not merely to go from hell to heaven.\u00a0 Our destiny is God’s heart desire which is to make us sinners into sons of God, to be constituted the Body of Christ for His glorious expression in this universe.<\/p>\n

Many of us know what it is to struggle against sin and the flesh.\u00a0 And many also know the struggle of never living up to the standard that we or others set for us.\u00a0 All three requires the freeing of the spirit recorded in Romans chapter 8.\u00a0 This is our focus of the life-study of the Bible today.<\/p>\n

Once again today we look at the tremendous revelation that God is busy making sinners into sons.\u00a0 Sometimes you hear the word “adopted” inserted into this portion regarding our being the sons of God. \u00a0 To be a son of God, you need the life of God. The word “adopted” doesn’t do justice simply because of our understanding of “adopted”. That is, if a child is adopted by some parents, that child does not have the life of those parents. We, as children of God, at one point we were not God’s children. Then we became God’s children when we receive His life, in that sense, there’s adoption. Actually, the divine meaning here is not really adoption but sonship.\u00a0 God is busy doing what we can call “sonizing”.\u00a0 That is He is busy as the wonderful resurrected life-giving Spirit making our entire being life.\u00a0 So that we can be a full-fledged bonafide son of God who is a duplication and a reproduction of Christ, who is the Firstborn Son of God. This is God’s heart desire and this is His economy.<\/p>\n
