p. 1077

Olympics

1. Freedom

1. Freedom . . .

Doesn’t sound much like freedom: Our idea – we do what we want.

Bible’s idea – we do what leads to fruit of the Spirit

We have opportunity to live a life of wisdom & grace Our sinful desires war against our souls (1 Pe 2:11)

In Christ we have been set free – we have crucified the sinful nature (v

24)

2. Goodness

God is 100% good

Picture the glory of heaven … Look closely at the mighty king

He is a slain lamb ! ! ! (Rev 5:9)

You want to know whether God is good … Look at the slain lamb !

3. Walking

To take hold of the life God is offering – work to do.

“Walk by the Spirit” (v 16) The Devil & the sinful nature are our enemies

(1 Pe 2:11)

We must WALK.

We must “keep in step with him” (v 25) He sets the pace & direction

Micah 6:8 – we walk humbly with God.

Living it . . .
