12. Apostle’s Creed I believe in God the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ,
His only Son our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell,
the third day He rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven,
and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy universal church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting.
Amen

14. Today’s Psalm Reading: : Ok Ju Choi

Prayer by : Ok Ju Choi

16. This Week’s Verse
For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. (Romans 8:5) (Feb. 26) NASB Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. NIV

17. Next Week’s Verse
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so; (Romans 8:6-7) (Mar. 5) NASB The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. NIV

18. Today’s Reading Romans 8:5-13
For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,
because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so;
and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
And if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

19. Today’s Reading Romans 8:5-13
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.
So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—
for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

20. Today’s Reading 로마서 8:5-13 육신을 따르는 자는 육신의 일을, 영을 따르는 자는 영의 일을 생각하나니
육신을 따르는 자는 육신의 일을, 영을 따르는 자는 영의 일을 생각하나니
육신의 생각은 사망이요 영의 생각은 생명과 평안이니라
육신의 생각은 하나님과 원수가 되나니 이는 하나님의 법에 굴 복하지 아니할 뿐 아니라 할 수도 없음이라
육신에 있는 자들은 하나님을 기쁘시게 할 수 없느니라
만일 너희 속에 하나님의 영이 거하시면 너희가 육신에 있지 아니하고 영에 있나니 누구든지 그리스도의 영이 없으면 그리 스도의 사람이 아니라
또 그리스도께서 너희 안에 계시면 몸은 죄로 말미암아 죽은 것이나 영은 의로 말미암아 살아 있는 것이니라

21. Today’s Reading
로마서 8:5-13
예수를 죽은 자 가운데서 살리신 이의 영이 너희 안에 거하시 면 그리스도 예수를 죽은 자 가운데서 살리신 이가 너희 안에 거하시는 그의 영으로 말미암아 너희 죽을 몸도 살리시리라
그러므로 형제들아 우리가 빚진 자로되 육신에게 져서 육신대 로 살 것이 아니니라
너희가 육신대로 살면 반드시 죽을 것이로되 영으로써 몸의 행 실을 죽이면 살리니

24. Introduction Romans 8:5-13
For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,
because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so;
and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
And if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

25. Introduction Romans 8:5-13
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.
So then, brethren, we are under obligation, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh—
for if you are living according to the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you are putting to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

26. Introduction : chapter 8
The spiritual richness, both theological and practical, of this chapter is beyond calculation and surpasses adequate comment.
When read by a believer with an open mind and an obedient heart, it is incredibly enriching.
It is one of the supreme life-changing chapters in Scripture.
It moves along in an ever-ascending course, concluding in the marvelous paean of praise and assurance: “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities(권세자), nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom. 8:38–39).

27. Introduction : Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is mentioned but once in the first seven chapters of Romans, but is referred to nearly twenty times in chapter 8.
The Spirit is to a believer what God the Creator is to the physical world.
Without God, the physical world would not exist. It has been created and is continually sustained by the omnipotent power of God.
So the Holy Spirit—who also, of course, participated in the creation of the world—is to the Christian. The Holy Spirit is the divine agent who creates, sustains, and preserves spiritual life in those who place their trust in Jesus Christ.
Divine agent : 하나님의 대리인

28. Introduction : Holy Spirit
Among the many characteristics of personhood that the Holy Spirit possesses and manifests are:
He functions with mind, emotion, and will;
He loves the saints, He communicates with them, teaches, guides, comforts, and chastises(책망하다) them;
He can be grieved, quenched(만족시키다), lied to, tested, resisted, and blasphemed.
The Bible speaks of His omniscience, His omnipotence, His omnipresence, and His divine glory and holiness. (全知, 全能, 偏在)
He is called God, Lord, the Spirit of God, the Spirit of the Lord, the Spirit of Yahweh (or Jehovah), the Spirit of the Father, the Spirit of the Son, the Spirit of Jesus, and the Comforter and Advocate(대변자)for believers.

29. Introduction : Holy Spirit
Scripture reveals
that the Holy Spirit was fully active with the Father and Son in the creation
and that He has been with all believers and enabled and empowered them even before Pentecost.
He has always been convicting men of sin, giving salvation to those who truly believed, and teaching them to worship, obey, and serve God rightly.
The Holy Spirit has been the divine agent who uniquely came upon God’s servants and inspired God’s sovereignly-chosen men to pen God’s Word.
True believers have always served God not by human might or power but by the Holy Spirit (cf. Zech. 4:6).

30. Introduction : Holy Spirit
The Spirit was involved in Jesus’ conception as a human being and in Jesus’ baptism, anointing, temptation, teaching, miracles, death, and resurrection.
Since Pentecost, the Holy Spirit has, in His fullness, indwelt all believers, illuminating their understanding and application of God’s Word as well as empowering them for sanctification in a greater way than had ever occurred before.
He fills them, seals them, communes with them, fellowships with them, intercedes for them, comforts them, admonishes(권고하다) them, sanctifies them, and enables them to resist sin and to serve God.
Fill : 성령을 부어주다
Seal : 봉인하다, 확정하다
Commune : 성체를 배령하다, 영성체하다, 성찬식을 하다
Intercede : 탄원하다, 중재하다
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
Roman 8:26~27
Admonish : 권고하다, 타이르다, 훈계하다

31. Introduction : overview
In the present passage (Rom. 8:5–13), Paul continues to disclose the innumerable results of justification, specifically the marvelous, spirit-wrought benefits of freedom from condemnation.
In verses 2–3 he has discussed the Spirit’s freeing us from sin and death, and in verse 4 His enabling us to fulfill God’s law.
In verses 5–13 Paul reveals that the Spirit also changes our nature and grants us strength for victory over the unredeemed flesh.
Fill : 성령을 부어주다
Seal : 봉인하다, 확정하다
Commune : 성체를 배령하다, 영성체하다, 성찬식을 하다
Intercede : 탄원하다, 중재하다
In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.
Roman 8:26~27
Admonish : 권고하다, 타이르다, 훈계하다

32. The Holy Spirit Changes Our Nature
Romans 8:5-13
For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.
For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace,
because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so;
and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
However, you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him.
And if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, yet the spirit is alive because of righteousness.

33. The Holy Spirit Changes Our Nature
Romans 8:5-13
But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.

34. The Holy Spirit Changes Our Nature : vv2-5
In verse 4 Paul speaks of the believer’s behavior, contending that he does “not walk(=live) according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.”
As in verses 2 and 3, the conjunction for in verse 5 carries the meaning of because.
The point is that a believer does not behave according to the flesh because his new heart and mind are no longer
centered on the things of the flesh
and ruled by sin.
4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

35. Two kinds of people
In God’s eyes, there are only two kinds of people in the world, those who do not belong to Him and those who do. Put another way, there are only those who are according to the flesh and those who are according to the Spirit.
As far as spiritual life is concerned, God takes no consideration of gender, age, education, talent, class, race, or any other human distinctions (Gal. 3:28).
He differentiates people solely on the basis of their relationship to Him, and the difference is absolute.

36. Two kinds of people … Obviously there are degrees in both categories.
Some unsaved people exhibit high moral behavior,
and, on the other hand, many saints do not mind the things of God as obediently as they should.
But every human being is completely
in one spiritual state of being
or the other;
he either belongs to God or he does not.
Just as a person cannot be partly dead and partly alive physically, neither can he be partly dead and partly alive spiritually.
반 죽음 = 반 삶
½ 죽음 = ½ 삶
x 2하면 죽음 = 삶

37. Two kinds of people … There is no middle ground. A person is
either forgiven and in the kingdom of God
or unforgiven and in the kingdom of this world.
He is
either a child of God
or a child of Satan.

38. Spiritual Nature
In this context, the phrase according to refers to basic spiritual nature.
The Greek could be translated literally as those being according to, indicating a person’s fundamental essence(본질), bent(경향), or disposition(성향).
Those who are according to the flesh are the unsaved,
the unforgiven, the unredeemed, the unregenerate.
Those who are according to the Spirit are the saved,
the forgiven, the redeemed, the regenerated children of
God.

39. Spiritual Nature
As the apostle points out a few verses later, the unsaved
not only are according to the flesh
but are in the flesh (v. 8)
and are not indwelt by the Holy Spirit. (v. 9)
The saved, on the other hand,
not only are according to the Spirit
but are in the Spirit
and indwelt by Him (v. 9).
Here in verse 5 Paul is speaking of the determinant(결정적인) spiritual pattern(영적 형태) of a person’s life, whereas in verses 8–9 he is speaking of the spiritual sphere(영적 영역) of a person’s life.
Pattern : a consistent, characteristic form, style, or method
spiritual pattern(영적 형태) : according to
spiritual sphere(영적 영역) : in the Spirit

40. Spiritual Nature
Phroneō, the verb behind set their minds, refers to the basic orientation(방향), bent, and thought patterns of the mind, rather than to the mind or intellect itself (Greek nous).
It includes a person’s affections(emotion, feeling) and will as well as his reasoning.
Paul uses the same verb in Philippians, where he admonishes believers to “have this attitude [or, “mind”] in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus” (2:5; see also 2:2; 3:15, 19; Col. 3:2). (너희 안에 이 마음을 품으라, 곧 그리스도 예수의 마음이니)
thought pattern(사고 습관) : a habit of thinking in a particular way or making certain assumptions, usu. positive or negative

41. Spiritual Nature of the unredeemed
The basic disposition(기질 ,성향) of the unredeemed is to “indulge the flesh in its corrupt desires” (2 Pet. 2:10).
(육체를 따라 더러운 정욕 가운데 행하며)
The lost are those “whose end is destruction, whose god is their appetite, and whose glory is in their shame, who set their minds on earthly things” (Phil. 3:19).
The things of the flesh includes false philosophies and religions, which invariably appeal, whether overtly(명백하게) or subtly(알기 어렵게), to the flesh through self-interest and self-effort.

42. Spiritual Nature of the redeemed
But those who are according to the Spirit, Paul says, set their minds on the things of the Spirit.
In other words, those who belong to God are concerned about godly things.
As Jonathan Edwards liked to say, they have “holy affections,” deep longings after God and sanctification.
As Paul has made clear in Romans 7, even God’s children sometimes falter in their obedience to Him.
But as the apostle said of himself, they nevertheless “joyfully concur with the law of God in the inner man” (Rom. 7:22). Despite their many spiritual failures, their basic orientation(지향, 방향) and innermost concerns have to do with the things of the Spirit.

43. Spiritual Equation
Phronēma (v6)(the mind) is the noun form of the verb in verse 5, and, like the verb, refers to the content or thought patterns of the mind rather than to the mind itself.
It is significant that Paul does not say that the mind set on the flesh leads to death, but that it is death.
The unsaved person is already dead spiritually. The apostle is stating a spiritual equation, not a spiritual consequence.
6 For the mind set on the flesh is death
the mind set on the flesh => death : spiritual consequence
the mind set on the flesh = death : spiritual equation

44. Spiritual Consequence
The consequence involved in this relationship is the reverse: that is, because unredeemed men are already spiritually dead, their minds are inevitably set on the flesh.
Paul reminded the Ephesian believers that, before salvation, they were all once “dead in [their] trespasses and sins” (Eph. 2:1).
the mind set on the flesh => death (X) the mind set on the flesh <= death (O)

45. Sin => Death
There is, of course, a sense in which sin leads to death.
“But your iniquities have made a separation between you and your God,” Isaiah declared to Israel, “and your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He does not hear” (Isa. 59:2).
Earlier in the book of Romans Paul explained that “the wages of sin is death” (6:23) and that “while we were in the flesh, the sinful passions, which were aroused by the Law, were at work in the members of our body to bear fruit for death” (7:5; cf. Gal. 6:8).

46. The State of Death
But Paul’s emphasis in the present passage is on the state of death in which every unbeliever already exists, even while his body and mind may be very much alive and active.
“A natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God,” Paul explained to the Corinthian believers, “for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised” (1 Cor. 2:14).

47. Spiritual Corpse
Some years ago I conducted the funeral for a baby girl killed in an automobile accident.
Before the service the mother kept reaching into the casket, taking the lifeless little body in her arms and caressing her and crying softly to her.
The baby, of course, could no longer respond to anything in the physical realm, because there was no life there to respond.

48. Spiritual Corpse …
The unsaved person is a spiritual corpse and consequently is completely unable, in himself, to respond to the things of God.
Unless the Holy Spirit intervenes by
convicting him of sin
and enabling him
to respond to God by faith
and thus being made alive,
the unsaved person is as insensitive to the things of God as that baby was to the caresses and cries of her mother.

A: I went to a funeral for a little boy. His mother caressed and kissed him with a lot of tears. But there was no response from the boy, which made me so sad. B: It’s so obvious. He has no life to respond. A: Absolutely. Likewise, unbelievers do not respond to God’s calling as they are spiritually dead. B: What a wonderful analogy! For them to be alive, they should believe in Jesus Christ.
