Consider Yourself...

This sermon expounds on Romans 6:11, emphasizing the believer's position in Christ as "dead to sin and alive to God." The preacher highlights that this is not an experiential reality but a positional truth grounded in justification by faith. Using Abraham's faith as an example (Romans 4), he underscores that believers must trust God's declaration rather than their fluctuating feelings. The message also affirms that, though Christians still struggle with sin, they are no longer its slaves. The sermon explores biblical passages confirming that sin and death no longer have dominion over believers, culminating in the victorious assurance that death is merely a passage into eternal life with Christ. The preacher also distinguishes between the believer's struggles with sin and the unregenerate state, demonstrating that true Christians are grieved by sin and long for holiness.
