Romans 7:2-7:4

Married to Christ - Part 1

We are still in the beginning stages of a series in Romans chapter seven, one of the most important chapters in the entire Bible. Now, that's saying a lot, but the relationship we have to man's laws and God's grace is a central part of our relationship with Jesus Christ. Intertwined within this truth is the fact that our relationship with the Lord is much like our marriage relationship. It's confusing to many Christians, but Pastor Lloyd is here to help us understand these vitally important truths.

  1. For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
  2. So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
  3. Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
