Pastor Thomas Study notes on Romans 1-8

Faith has to be intentional if it’s going to override the limitations of the laws of limitation

Study of Romans

God wants to be believed that trusting in him has the power to override limits, obstacle and hindrance

Faith does not apply automatically universally to the benefit of all. It has and must be intentionally exercised to bring benefits. The strong awareness of the power of the law and hindrances and limitations in human life must trigger the counter force of faith in us intentional to over come lives difficulties and challenges and if exercised firmly enough it will start to deliver it promised blessing and bring reliefs in our lives

Take a Look at God eye ball to eye ball and tell Him ‘I’m going to trust you in every situation of my life’

The conflict of faith.
Our human situations compared with the wild promises of God many times are so contrary and unbelievably incongruent that unless by divine mercies and favour it’s almost impossible for people to believe God for something good, so dramatic and out of this world to happen in their ugly situations

If you take 1m human beings in bad situations you could probably get just one person who can really believe God for a dramatic change of story. Let me be that one person. It’s a divine choice to be singled out to be chosen to exercise faith in God in this hour. Faith livers are selected sample humans who are to test the methods of God

Humans didn’t know the cause of death until the law revealed and brought it to light – that sin brought about death.

The extreme damage sin can go to, is to kill and the extreme good faith in Christ can obtain is to take the life of the Son of God and give it to you.
Romans 5:21

For faith to work you must first die to the flesh and all it desires Romans 6

I’m confused ‘Chaper 7’ how are these things you’re talking about possible in human life in the flesh? No it cannot happen unless in one is in the spirit

The law maintains dominion over a person as long as he’s in the flesh and operates in the flesh

Consciousness is a miracle. The magic of awareness or mindfulness Romans 7 – law and spirit

The law is spiritual, challenging me to rise into a spiritual dimension of life by overcoming the fleshly enticements to stay and live in sin Romans 7

The overthrow of the law of sin by the law of the spirit mind – mind of the spirit Romans 8

It’s all in the mind

Suffer by becoming unmindful of satisfying the demands of the flesh by filling your mind with the spirit. Overwhelm your mind with the spirit information and you will not satisfy the demands of the flesh
