The sacrifice of Christ has resolved the issue of sin and temptation. Our struggle lies in aligning our present selves with our past identities. We place our trust in Christ, recognizing Him as our sole means of salvation. At the cross, Christ obtained salvation, and we have received it in a manner that allows us to move away from our former sinful ways. This previous way of life was marked by condemnation, while the life offered by Christ is one of salvation. Our identity in Christ not only frees us from the constraints of the law but also liberates us from the burden of our conscience. We are no longer bound by a legalistic system where all things hold equal power. Sin no longer has dominion over us, as its power has been shattered. This victory over sin was achieved not through our own salvation, but through the work accomplished at the cross. Although it transpired many years ago, its effects continue to manifest in our lives through grace. The struggle between sin and salvation was resolved in the power struggle of Christ's crucifixion. When He declared "it is finished," salvation was secured for past, present, and future believers. Our confidence should rest in the work accomplished in the distant past, rather than in our own self-perception. This represents a conflict between our adherence to a belief that we perceive as beneficial and an identity that was never intended for us by Christ. Our understanding of these concepts determines our growth within this new framework. The multitude of reminders we receive, not only in written form but also through spiritual guidance, can lead to confusion as we strive to maintain focus. This is a life where we prioritize genuine supernatural qualities, which may not always be evident externally. It is a life centered on remaining connected to a higher power, as without it, we are incapable of achieving anything.We are no longer bound by the condemning force of the law. The law's power resides within our physical bodies. It serves as a reminder of its condemning force, as well as our past enslavement to principles and people. We reflect upon this struggle and recognize that it was resolved when we attained salvation. Now, we view our sins without the reminders of God's condemnation. Instead, we perceive sin through the lens of grace. We have been completely liberated from the influence of the flesh, as the law no longer obstructs us and subjects us to God's wrath. Through Christ's attainment of salvation on our behalf, His love has been bestowed upon us, serving as the origin of all these gospel initiatives.
