Salvation is about switching lanes
Salvation is an inner work of the Spirit – a miracle! In fact, this is the essential and original miracle.
The switch from Adam to Christ happens at the Cross
Romans 7 describes the strange world the Christian lives in where both Adams are available, but Romans 6 has already clearly outlined how to depart the Old Adam and Romans 8 sings gloriously about the new life in the Last Adam – Christ.
- Romans 6 The cross as Death to Adam
- Romans 8 The glorious Resurrection into the New life in Christ by the Spirit
Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?4. Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.5. For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,6. knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.7. For he who has died has been freed from sin.
Romans 6:3-7
Verses of Hope – not condemnation
Whoever has been born of God does not sin, for His seed remains in him; and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.
1 John 3:9
