Intro
On January 6, 1941, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt addressed Congress on the state of the war in Europe.
Much of what he said that day has been forgotten.
But at the close of his address, he said that he looked forward “to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.”
He named them: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want, and freedom from fear.
These words are still remembered, even though their ideals have not yet been realized everywhere in the world.
Romans 8 is the Christian’s “Declaration of Freedom,” for in it Paul declares the four spiritual freedoms we enjoy because of our union with Jesus Christ.
A study of this chapter shows the emphasis on the Holy Spirit, who is mentioned nineteen times.
“Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty” (2 Cor.
3:17).
Many would consider Ch 8 to be one of the most important chapters in the Bible
In this section of Romans, Paul presents practical strategies for overcoming the ongoing problem of our sinful flesh.
In 1:18–20, he discloses God’s response to our sin: His wrath against all godlessness and wickedness.
Most of Romans 1–4:25 explains that Jews and Gentiles alike are under this wrath, and we all share the same need for reconciliation with God.
In Romans 5:1–7:25a, Paul addresses the role that God’s righteousness, revealed in the gospel, plays in the lives of believers once they have been reconciled with Him.
At the end of Romans 7, he introduces the ongoing problem of sin in our unredeemed bodies.
Another important aspect of the gospel’s power is the new life that it opens up to us—not only eternal life here, but life in the Spirit.
What follows is the beginning of the next big thematic unit, looking at life in the Spirit as the solution to the lingering problem of sin.
