Romans 6-17 Research Paper

Decent Essays
“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God” Romans 6:17 (NKJ). In the business world they say that the most important key to an esteemed business leader’s success is communication. It’s not leadership or your technological knowledge or even financial planning, its communication. Think about it … how do the best leaders motivate and inspire their people? It’s through clear communication. God is not limited in communicating and today God speak to us in so many ways. In the Bible God spoke using prophets, sometimes by dreams and visions and sometimes by Divine influence and revelation.

Today as Christians we should seek to be a blessing to everyone that we come into contact with. Our words and how we communicate with others

    Though many believers will negate the important effect that their worldviews have on their lives, their worldviews function as a critical pivotal point by which they understand and relate with the rest of the world and by which they motivate themselves. Since humans unconsciously rely on past experience and knowledge to prompt their next move, a worldview provides a lens of understanding through which past perceptions reveal how to understand the present reality. However, many people like to bury their heads in the sand, so to speak, when it comes to acknowledging their worldview’s impact or changing a fault in their worldview. Unfortunately, these people are like someone who refuses to wear corrective lenses, and whose gaze is therefore obscured…

Once the Jew relied upon the written law of Moses, Paul shows here that there is still law, it just looks different than what was originally thought. Recurrence: “Spirit” Language Life in accord with the spirit (vv 4, 5, 10)/ Mind in accord with the spirit (v 6)/ Being in the spirit (v 9)/ Spirit in us (v 11)/ Actions we perform by the spirit/led…

    One way that it is important to recognize that my worldview influences my desires is that if my worldview is flawed, I may commit illicit acts while believing that my actions are justifiable. For instance, if my worldview includes an appreciation for polygamy, if I were to practice polygamy, I would believe that the practice is appropriate. Conversely, if I held a biblical worldview, specifically that man is to exclusively have one wife, I would strive to solely practice monogamy and reject polygamy. Furthermore, a biblical worldview will influence my desires to increasingly love God, while increasingly hating sin.…
