Colin Cook takes you on a deep dive into Romans 8:3-4 in this episode of 'How it Happens'. He unpacks Paul's message about the law, faith in Christ, and the spirit of life. Colin explains how Paul contrasts the old law with the new principle of life through Jesus. It's not about adhering to the Ten Commandments, but about embracing the spirit of life that sets us free from sin and death.
Colin tackles common misinterpretations of these verses, clarifying that the law couldn't produce righteousness because of our human nature. Instead, God sent His Son to do what the law couldn't – live a sinless life and take on humanity's judgment. Colin emphasises that Jesus' sacrifice means we don't need to strive for perfection through the law. Instead, our faith in Christ fulfils the law's righteous requirement.
