When a believer experiences sin in their life it is not the end for their relationship with God. However, since Jesus paid the sin debt it does not give a license for Christians to live carelessly with reckless abandon. Once a person has come to faith in Christ they are free from their sins and he or she is free to live, love and serve God.
So how is a person who has come to faith in Christ suppose to deal with sin that occurs? This message will help explain that God has also provided His Spirit to help with the power to overcome sin that still may occur in the life of a believer. The victory over the flesh (sin) is made available by the Holy Spirit in these ways:
There is victory over the flesh by walking in the Spirit through love
The fruit of the Spirit is victory over the flesh
Victory over sin is crucifying the flesh
Victory over the flesh is through love
