Death vs Life


For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
[Romans 8:2 KJV]

In Romans 8:2 we see the two spiritual laws of life and death in operation. The following charts show each law and it's results. As you can see, they are complete opposites. The boundary line between them was crossed only one time-when Jesus offered Himself as the Supreme sacrifice to purchase our freedom from every part of the curse.

SATAN                                             JESUS          


  1. The law of sin                           The law of the
and death                                  Spirit of life
(the curse)                                  (the blessing)
                                                                                

  2. Fear                                                Faith
                                                                                

3. Sin & Death              Life & Righteousness
                                                                                

4. Sickness & disease         Healing & Divine-                                                              Health
                                                                                

5. Poverty                             Prosperity
                                                                                

6. Worry & Anxiety            The Peace of God
                                                                                

7. Hate                                    Love
                                                                                

8. Demons                              Angelic Powers
                                                                                

The price that Jesus paid was two-fold. He came, not only to destroy the works of the devil, but also to deliver us from the fear of death and the bondage it brings. Look at [Hebrews 2:14-15]

 Forasmuch then as the children are
partakers of flesh and blood, he
also himself likewise took part of
the same; that through death he
might destroy him that had the
power of death, that is, the devil;
And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

The phrase fear of death is a result of 
the law of sin and death. The word 
destroy in the original text means “to 
paralyze.” Jesus came for two reasons:

1. to completely paralyze Satan 
who had the power of death

2. to deliver us who through 
fear of death were held subject 
to bondage

We have not been given the spirit
of bondage again to fear. Fear pro-
duces bondage. Jesus came to break
the power of that bondage! How? By
stopping the force of fear. Praise God!

In order for the power of death to
ever be broken, Jesus had to absorb
all the curse of the law, both in the
spiritual realm and in the physical
realm. He bore all the physical curse at Calvary. All the demons of hell
came against Him to annihilate Him.
They wanted to torment Jesus forever
and keep Him in bondage forever,
thereby keeping God from ever hav­ing contact with mankind again. Satan
could then rule and reign on this earth
as he pleased with no restrictions or
qualifications whatsoever. But God
had something else in mind!
[Hebrews 2:14] says through death He (Jesus) 
destroyed him (Satan) that had the
power of death.

When the price was paid, God
breathed the breath of life into Jesus,
and the law of the Spirit of life was set
into motion for mankind. Because He
did all that for you and me, we can
live free! We can know beyond doubt
that the law of the Spirit of life in
Christ Jesus has made us free from
the law of sin and death!

Identity in CHRIST - Part 2 ( Crucified with CHRIST)

Crucified with CHRIST Galatians 2:20 When Paul said, "I have been crucified with CHRIST," it meant he had been judged, condemned, cast out, stripped naked, and nailed to the Cross. The very thought of crucifixion to a Jew, and especially to a Pharisee, brought a sense of shame and horror. When Saul of Tarsus identified himself with the Man, JESUS, accepted HIM as his SAVIOR, and confessed HIM as his LORD, that moment he became a crucified man to the Jewish people. He became an outcast. No wonder he said in Gal. 6:14 that the world had been crucified unto him, and he had been crucified unto the world.  The world had been stripped naked to Paul. There was no longer any delusionin regard to it. He could no longer be deceived. He knew its cruelty. He had felt its lash upon his back.  He remembered the stoning that had left him unconscious. He remembered that in every place he went, he faced the anger, bitterness, and jealousy of men.  He had been stripped naked ...

His LOVE

The Lost Coin-   Today we are gaining knowledge from the eminent parable " The Lost Coin" (Luke 15:8-10 Kjv).                In the above context, the Bible referred to a "Value" . The Bible says that, the women had 10 coins with her and unfortunately she lost one coin. To regain that coin, that women started seeking all around. If it was a night, Bible says, she would have definitely light a lamp and searched for it.  Why that lady kept all her effort to regain that coin? Its because, the coin has a " value" . With that coin she can comfort herself, can buy groceries, can lend to someone.  If there is no value to that coin, she would have neglect that coin and would had a nap.  Similarly, even we too have a "value". The bible says that we are more greater and valuable than angels because, Jesus gave us the authority of son-ship ( Romans 8:15 Kjv). Our value is not live by ...

Sons of Abundance

  Sons of Abundance In a world often marked by scarcity and striving, the call to become "Sons of Abundance" is a powerful invitation to live in the fullness of God’s provision and grace. This mindset is not about material wealth alone but encompasses a life overflowing with spiritual, emotional, and relational richness—a life rooted in the knowledge of God as our loving Father. When we embrace our identity as His children, we step into a divine inheritance that transforms how we think, live, and give. 1. Knowing God as a Father At the heart of abundance is a deep understanding of God’s character as our Father. He is not distant or detached but intimately involved in every aspect of our lives. Galatians 4:7 (Mirror) reminds us, “Your sonship qualifies you to immediately participate in all the wealth of GOD’s inheritance which is yours because of CHRIST.” Similarly, Ephesians 1:11 (NLT) declares, “Furthermore, because we are united with CHRIST, we have received an inheritanc...
