People might say it is impossible to live a life free from sin and

fulfill the law like Jesus did. Although it is true that before the

death and resurrection of Jesus Christ the people were spiritually

dead and incapable of fulfilling the law, but a Christian is no longer

spiritually dead, but alive unto God and very capable of fulfilling

the law. Let’s see what God’s word has to say about this

controversial subject.

Through our born-again spirit, we have the authority in Christ to

command our bodies and souls to stop sinning and get in line

with God’s word. Jesus is our prototype: The works that I do

shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do;

because I go unto the Father (John 14:12). And of course,

one of the “works” was to have victory over all sin.

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheth me (Philippians 4:13).

For he that is dead is freed from sin (Romans 6:7). I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I (born-again spirit) live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me:

and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son

of God, who loved me, and gave his life for me. (Galatians 2:20).

Without a revelation of our death to sin, then we will continue to be a

slave to sin.

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). According to God’s word, our

sins are not imputed to us because of Christ’s finished work, putting

us right back into Genesis 1 and 2. In Genesis 1 and 2 before Adam

sinned, there was no sin. It was like Heaven on earth. Jesus restored

us to a life free from sin, just like it was in the Garden of Eden. Praise

God!

What did Jesus encourage us to pray in Matthew 6:10b?

“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.”

There is no sin in Heaven and there was no sin in the Garden of

Eden until the transgression. Therefore we can experience freedom

from sin on earth. How? Meditate on those scriptures that declare

our old sinful man was put to death on the cross until that truth

becomes a rhema in our hearts, pray in tongues, walk in love and

take authority over our souls and bodies in Jesus’ name.

2 Peter 1:4 tells us we can partake of God’s holy divine nature

through His promises. That is why it so important to spend time

each day meditating on those promises that tell us who we are in

Christ and what our inheritance is in Christ. And of course, if we

do sin during the renewing and restoration process, there is

always 1 John 1:7,9.

But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our

Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:57). If we are still slaves

to sin, we certainly are not victorious. But God cannot lie,

He said we are victorious through Christ and sin will not have

dominion over us according to Romans 6:14. Hallelujah!

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities for we know not

what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh

intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered

(Romans 8:26). Love never fails (1 Corinthians 13:8). “Behold,

I give unto you power (authority) to tread on serpents and

scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy” (Luke 10:19a).

And we can use this authority to keep are bodies and souls in line

with God’s word, free from sinning.

So, is it impossible to live a life free from the bondage and torment of

sin and fulfill God’s law? All things are possible to him that

believeth (Mark 9:23b). For with God all things are possible (Mark 10:27b).
