Romans 8:5-8:8

Life and Peace in the Spirit

With all the turmoil going on around the world these days, especially in the Middle East, people are on the lookout for ways to find peace. When you consider the ideological differences in the Middle East, you can see just how difficult it will be to ever have peace over there. But what about in our own individual hearts? How can we find lasting peace there? That's the gist of Pastor Lloyd's message today as we continue our series in Romans Eight.

  1. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
  2. For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
  3. Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
  4. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
