Over the last two weeks, we’ve been exploring the “elephant in the room” of sin, and how we can have victory over sin through Christ. We began with the foundation of the cross, and saw how the only way to bear good fruit is to change the type of tree we are.  Next we saw how this change occurs— not through striving and self effort, but through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and living your new identity in Him. Today, we will look at the practical side of how to apply these truths in daily life, using real examples from scripture to experience the victory over sin that Jesus paid for us to have.
In last week’s study we began addressing the “elephant in the room” for many Christians: the topic of sin and how we as believer’s in Jesus Christ can truly find victory and defeat sin.
