Set free from sin and death


"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." - Hebrews 2:14-15

We are set free from sin and death when we obey the gospel as found in Acts 2:38!

"But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:" - 2 Timothy 1:10

“I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death." - Revelation 1:18

"And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it." - Colossians 2:15

We obey the gospel and are set free from the sin in our life that brings death, when we obey Acts 2:38:

"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost." - Acts 2:38

By obeying the gospel, we have applied the blood of Jesus to our life by water baptism in Jesus name, and have been filled with the Spirit of Jesus when we received the Holy Ghost.

"Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world." - 1 John 4:4
