SIN HAS BEEN DEFEATED

Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
I tell people all the time that sin is not the believer’s problem. And any time I make this kind of statement, I could see shock written all over people’s faces. Many still don’t get this simple truth I have been trying to share over the years. If you don’t know in truth that sin is not the problem of the believer in Christ, your struggle with sin continues.
Our opening scripture is crystal clear on the destiny of sin. Sin has two sides: it is first a nature then an act. We inherited our sinful nature from Adam. When Adam sinned against God in the garden, he passed on to all men the sin nature which is the nature of the devil. Scripture calls it the “the spirit that works in the children of disobedience” (Ephesians 2:2). And both the sin nature and the sinful act were all defeated by Christ on the cross.

Jesus instituted what is known as “The Lord’s Supper”. It is not man’s idea; it is the wisdom of God for the believer’s advantage and prosperity. If we would truly understand what it represents and the power in it thereof, our lives will be transformed greatly.
On the night of the Passover, Jesus took bread and broke and gave it to His disciples and said, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. The Lord’s table is about Jesus and not us. The focus is not us but Him and what He did for us. One major benefit of the Lord’s supper is that it delivers us from self to focusing on Jesus; it makes us Christ occupied. Anytime we partake of the Lord’s supper, we are to remember Him and not our sins.
