Romans: Living Out the Power of the Gospel: Victory Over Sin

Are we living as if the struggle inside us is normal—or as if something has fundamentally changed?Terry says there is still a real inner conflict, but the old patterns no longer have authority unless we revive them by believing lies and acting on them. The turning point is recognising the fight, trusting what is true over what we feel, and seeing ourselves in light of who we are now rather than who we were. Instead of running away when we fail, we move toward grace, where we find the strength to start again without shame. Practical steps—staying connected, being honest with others, shaping our thinking, and watching our words—help us stay grounded in that new reality. So the invitation is clear: stop going back to what’s been left behind, and choose each day to live as the person we’ve already become.
