Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

Passage: 1 Peter 2:11-12
Series: 1 Peter (2015)
Duration: 1 hr 5 mins 45 secs
After we trust in Christ as our Savior can we just say no to sin? Listen to this lesson to learn that it is only when we walk by the Spirit that we can obey the command to abstain from sin. See the part our lust pattern plays in this. Find out that sin will always be a battle in our lives. Learn that confession of sin means that we once again can walk by the Spirit. See that Christ’s death freed us from the penalty of sin but it is only when we are walking by the Spirit that we are freed from sin’s power in our lives.
