These next couple of weeks are going to get hectic! They always do. Don&#8217;t they? But soon we&#8217;ll be in a transition period. The week between Christmas and New Year. You know where almost everything slows down as we wait for New Year&#8217;s Eve. That brings me to our message this week, the &#8220;Transition from flesh to Spirit&#8221; or law to grace.<\/p>\n<p>Paul gives us a look at who we are in Christ vs what we do in flesh! The transition from living in the flesh to Spirit identity. From law to grace. There is a wonderful transition between Romans 7 &amp; 8. In these two chapters there are five words that reveal this marvelous transition. As we read Romans 7 Paul makes it clear in all 25 versus the issue is the law and sin with the flesh, mind and the Spirit coming in a distant 3, 4 and 5. But as we read Romans 8 Paul makes it clear in all 39 versus the issue is the Spirit and flesh with the law, sin and the mind coming in a distant 3, 4 and 5. Let\u2019s take a closer look at these two chapters.Let&#8217;s talk about it.<br \/>\nLove in Christ,<\/p>\n<p>David &amp; Katherine<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2015 Dec 13th Streaming Greetings Everyone, Well, here we are another week closer to Christmas!
