Wanted Dead And Alive

AM Service

November 24, 2024 • Pastor Chris Rumfelt • Romans 6:1–14

In Romans 6, Paul addresses the themes of grace, sin, and baptism, emphasizing that grace is not an excuse to continue in sin but a call to live a transformed life. He refutes the misconception that more sin leads to more grace, highlighting that true grace leads to repentance and holiness. Baptism is explained as a powerful declaration of faith, symbolizing our union with Christ in His death, burial, and resurrection. It is an outward expression of an inward change, much like a wedding ring symbolizes marriage. Christians are encouraged to avoid the edge of sin, striving to stay close to God and live a life of holiness. While acknowledging our imperfections, we are reminded that God's grace is sufficient, and we should continually seek His guidance and strength. Reflect on the true meaning of grace, embrace its transformative power, and let it lead to a deeper relationship with Christ.
