罗马书［第7章|Book of Romans 7【怎么靠主得胜？】
02/12/2021
引言: 从【知道】到【行道】中间隔着什么呢？
人的思想意念，人的选择和决定！而这部分正是决定一个人的成败之关键因素。
一、与主同死同复活的功效（V1-6）
律法有一套标准和要求，人做不到完全也既是犯了法，定了死罪。但这事对活着的我们才有功效；正如某某罪犯被判坐监10年，但是一年后这位罪犯在监狱中生病去世了，即使他还要9年的刑期尚未服完，但是这个定罪的法律对他已经没用了。
经文要说的是无论有律法的犹太人，或者犯罪的任何人，都在法律的定罪中被判了死刑。但是，当我们相信耶稣基督，并且接受了洗礼，就在这事上与主同死同复活（罗6:3-5）。既然我们的老我罪人已经与主同死了，那么我们就脱离了定罪的律法的捆绑、自由了。
而如今在我们的生命中管理我们的“新主人”就是圣灵，圣灵的作法显然和旧时的作法是不同的。旧条文就是靠人的努力去守住不违反神的规定，违反了就是被定罪。但是在基督的代死与复活则全然不同；
一是旧债被还清了，脱离了一切定罪的咒诅。 二是人有可以认罪悔改的恩典，去面向成圣的方向前进。圣灵光照和有责备的时候，正是神在提醒我们过界了，要速速回转。恩典的功效就在于此，人才有机会渐渐进入完全。
意思说，我们信主前和信主后的生活方式必然是不同的。新的样式、新的作风，容易认罪悔改，竭力听从真理，这就是一种生命成长的见证。你有什么令人看到不同的见证呢？这就是与主同死同复活的生命，是活泼而不断在成长的。
二、人里面就有老亚当的罪（V7-13）
既然与主同复活了，为什么还有罪的挣扎在人里面呢？
诫命把神的律法显明出来，罪性却把人的堕落彰显出来。神的律法就是一盏特强的日光灯，照在人身上的时候，就把人的污垢、肮脏、瑕疵、弊病统统呈现出来。而神的律法所显明的不单是外表看得到的，甚至连人内心看不到的，都一一给显露出来。因此，圣经说没有义人，连一个都没有。
神是绝对圣洁无瑕的神，祂的标准就是要所有蒙了洁净赦罪的人，不要继续活在罪中，走向成圣的路。这一章经文的上文，既是6章的最后一节说到“世人都犯了罪···！”这是指什么罪呢？罪的原文之意思就是“不中的”，没有达到神的标准。罪包含看得见而行出来的、看不见只是心里想的、罪是包括知道神要人做而自己却违抗命令不肯去做的。如此看来，虽然作了基督徒，但是老亚当的本性还在。我们并没有因为信也耶稣而变成超人！
这就是为什么基督徒不是信主、受洗就完成了。而是不断的面对奔走天路的种种考验！
三、人里面有两个律在交战（V14-23）
我们要从灵魂体这三个层面来分析这段经文： 1.我们的灵是从神而生：所以我们的灵里可望亲近神、顺服神。
2.肉体却倾向体贴肉体：我们自然的本性就会随从肉体。
3.引导魂的心思有交战：按着我里面的人的意思，这人即使有思想、有判断、有选择的人；就以人的魂来说，我们是可以主导全人最终的抉择的。叫全人听神或顺畅肉体的欲望行事？
当我们听道之后，我们的灵要回应圣灵的指示，以致让我们经历奇妙的改变。这时肉体却告诉我们许多人性的体贴和放纵，叫我们追求享乐和纵欲，为所欲为。这时长官我们的心思意念的魂就起了争战。到底要听谁的呢？我们在属灵上积极追求的时候就容易让自己的心思顺服真理，但是当事情有起伏挫败的时候，人就容易倾向跟随肉体，结果就软弱跌倒了。这就是基督徒的属灵争战与成圣之路。
总结：得胜就在【靠着主】！（V24-25）
7:24 我真是苦啊！谁能救我脱离这取死的身体呢？
7:25 感谢神！靠着我们的主耶稣基督就能脱离了。这样看来，我以内心顺服 神的律，我肉体却顺服罪的律了。
何谓靠着主？凡事寻求祷告主帮助。
如何靠着主？选择符合真理的决定。
何时靠着主？当你面对任何抉择时。
什么是得胜？按照神的道去做事情。
Romans 7: How can we overcome through the Lord
GK611 Morning Devotion
02/12/2021
Speaker: Rev. David Tan
Introduction:
What is the interval from [knowing] to [doing]? The human mind, the human choices and decisions! And this part is the key factor that determines the success or failure of a person.
1. The efficiency of dying and rising with the Lord (V1-6)
The law has a set of standards and requirements, and a person who fails to do so completely is both guilty of breaking the law and condemned to death. But it is only effective for us who are alive; just as a certain criminal was sentenced to 10 years in prison, but a year later the criminal became ill in prison and died, even though he still had 9 years to serve, but the law of conviction was no longer useful for him.
The Scripture is saying that whether a Jew with the law, or anyone who sins, is condemned to death in the condemnation of the law. However, when we believe in Jesus Christ and are baptized, we die and rise with the Lord in this matter (Rom 6:3-5). Since our old self, the sinner, has died with the Lord, we are free from the bondage and freedom of the law of condemnation.
The "new master" who governs us in our lives today is the Holy Spirit, whose works are obviously different from those of the old time. The old law depended on human effort to keep from violating God's rules, and to violate them was to be condemned. But in the substitutionary death and resurrection of Christ it is entirely different.
One is that the old debt is paid and one is free from all the curses of condemnation.
Secondly, one has the grace to confess and repent of one's sins and go forward in the direction of sanctification. When the Holy Spirit shines and there is rebuke, it is God's way of reminding us that we have crossed the line and to turn back quickly. This is where grace works, and man has the opportunity to gradually enter into perfection.
It means that our lifestyles before and after conversion are necessarily different. A new style, a new way of doing things, an easy confession of sin and repentance, and a striving to obey the truth, is a testimony of life growth. What do you have that makes you see the difference in your testimony? This is the life of dying and rising with the Lord, which is living and growing.
2. The Sin of the Old Adam is in Man (V7-13)
Having been raised with the Lord, why is there still the struggle of sin in man?
The commandments reveal the law of God, but the sinful nature manifests the fall of man. The law of God is an exceptionally strong daylight, and when it shines on man, it presents all the dirt, filth, blemishes, and shortcomings of man. And the law of God reveals not only what is visible on the outside, but also what is not visible on the inside of man. Therefore, the Bible says that there is no righteous man, not even one.
God is an absolutely holy and blameless God, and His standard is that all those who have been cleansed and forgiven of their sins should not continue to live in sin, but go on to sanctification. The last verse of this chapter, the last verse of chapter 6, says, "All have sinned--!" What kind of sin is this referring to? The original meaning of the word sin is "missed the target", not up to God's standard. Sin includes those who see and do, those who do not see but think in their hearts, and those who know that God wants people to do but disobey and refuse to do it. In this way, although we are Christians, the nature of the old Adam is still present. We have not become supermen because we believe in Jesus!
This is why Christians are not finished with believing and being baptized, but are constantly facing the trials and tribulations of walking the road to heaven!
3. There are Two Laws at War in Man (V14-23)
We are going to analyze this scripture from the three levels of the soul-body.
1. Our spirit is born of God: Therefore, our spirit desire to get close to God and obedient to God.
2. The flesh is inclined to be carnal: our natural nature follows the flesh.
3. The mind that guides the soul is at war: according to the man in me, this man is even a man of thought, judgment, and choice; in the case of the human soul, we are able to dominate the ultimate choice of the whole man. To tell the whole man to listen to God or to act in obedience to the desires of the flesh?
After we have heard the word, our spirit is to respond to the instructions of the Holy Spirit, so that we may experience a wonderful change. But at this time the flesh tells us many human indulgences, calling us to pursue pleasures and indulgences, and to do whatever we want. At this time the soul which controls our heart and mind is at war. Whom should we listen to? When we are actively pursuing spiritually, it is easy for us to submit our minds to the truth, but when things are up and down and frustrating, we tend to follow the flesh, and as a result we are weak and fallen. This is the Christian's path of spiritual warfare and sanctification.
Conclusion: Victory is in [leaning on the Lord]! (V24-25)
24 O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!
So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.
What does it mean to rely on the Lord? To seek the Lord in prayer for help in all things.
How to rely on the Lord? Choose decisions that are in accordance with the truth.
When do you rely on the Lord? When you are faced with any decision.
What is victory? Doing things according to the Word of God.
