12/1/25 | Stop Cheating on Grace with Religion | Romans 7:1-6
December 1, 2025
Romans 7 teaches that following Jesus isn’t about obeying God out of pressure — it’s about loving God out of freedom. Paul uses the picture of a marriage covenant to show that when we died with Christ, we were released from the law and united to Him in new life. Instead of producing a harvest of rebellion, our union with Jesus now produces a harvest of good fruit. This message explores the difference between religion and relationship, and how the Holy Spirit empowers us to live in love, not legalism. Real transformation flows not from trying harder, but from living connected to Christ.
