We have repented of our sins. We have been baptized in Jesus name for the remission of our sins. We have received the gift of the Holy Ghost. Now what?
"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that
grace may abound? God forbid… we are buried with him by baptism into death:
that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father,
even so we also should walk in newness of life." - Romans 6:1-4 KJV
How do we “walk in newness of life”?
We have received new life in Jesus when we received the gift
of His Spirit. Now we need to walk in His Spirit. (2 Corinthians 5:17,
Ephesians 4:22-24, Ephesians 5:8, Colossians 3:10, 1 John 2:6).
"This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not
fulfil the lust of the flesh." - Galatians 5:16 KJV
When we are full of the Holy Ghost, we receive God’s power
to overcome sin in our life and become a witness of our new life in Jesus.
"But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost
is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me..." - Acts 1:8 KJV
(Luke 24:49).
"If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the
Spirit." - Galatians 5:25 KJV
"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which
are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."
- Romans 8:1 KJV (Revelation 17:14).
