THE LETTER KILLETH, BUT THE SPIRIT GIVETH LIFE!

THE LETTER KILLETH, BUT THE SPIRIT GIVETH LIFE! 

Ephesians 2:1 

And You Hath He Quickened, Who Were Dead In Trespasses And Sins;

1 Peter 2:24 

Who His Own Self Bare Our Sins In His Own Body On The Tree, That We, Being Dead To Sins, Should Live Unto Righteousness: By Whose Stripes Ye Were Healed.

Romans 7:6 

But Now We Are Delivered From The Law, That Being Dead Wherein We Were Held; That We Should Serve In Newness Of Spirit, And Not In The Oldness Of The Letter.

Romans 6:14 

For Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Over You: For Ye Are Not Under The Law, But Under Grace.

Colossians 2:13-15 

And You, Being Dead In Your Sins And The Uncircumcision Of Your Flesh, Hath He Quickened Together With Him, Having Forgiven You All Trespasses; Blotting Out The Handwriting Of Ordinances That Was Against Us, Which Was Contrary To Us, And Took It Out Of The Way, Nailing It To His Cross; And Having Spoiled Principalities And Powers, He Made A Shew Of Them Openly, Triumphing Over Them In It.

Ephesians 2:12-18

That At That Time Ye Were Without Christ, Being Aliens From The Commonwealth Of Israel, And Strangers From The Covenants Of Promise, Having No Hope, And Without God In The World: But Now In Christ Jesus Ye Who Sometimes Were Far Off Are Made Nigh By The Blood Of Christ. For He Is Our Peace, Who Hath Made Both One, And Hath Broken Down The Middle Wall Of Partition Between Us; Having Abolished In His Flesh The Enmity, Even The Law Of Commandments Contained In Ordinances; For To Make In Himself Of Twain One New Man, So Making Peace; And That He Might Reconcile Both Unto God In One Body By The Cross, Having Slain The Enmity Thereby: And Came And Preached Peace To You Which Were Afar Off, And To Them That Were Nigh. For Through Him We Both Have Access By One Spirit Unto The Father.

2 Corinthians 3:3-18

Forasmuch As Ye Are Manifestly Declared To Be The Epistle Of Christ Ministered By Us, Written Not With Ink, But With The Spirit Of The Living God; Not In Tables Of Stone, But In Fleshy Tables Of The Heart. And Such Trust Have We Through Christ To God-ward: Not That We Are Sufficient Of Ourselves To Think Any Thing As Of Ourselves; But Our Sufficiency Is Of God; Who Also Hath Made Us Able Ministers Of The New Testament; Not Of The Letter, But Of The Spirit: FOR THE LETTER KILLETH, But The Spirit Giveth Life. But If The Ministration Of Death, Written And Engraven In Stones, Was Glorious, So That The Children Of Israel Could Not Stedfastly Behold The Face Of Moses For The Glory Of His Countenance; Which Glory Was To Be Done Away: How Shall Not The Ministration Of The Spirit Be Rather Glorious? For If The Ministration Of Condemnation Be Glory, Much More Doth The Ministration Of Righteousness Exceed In Glory. For Even That Which Was Made Glorious Had No Glory In This Respect, By Reason Of The Glory That Excelleth. For If That Which Is Done Away Was Glorious, Much More That Which Remaineth Is Glorious. Seeing Then That We Have Such Hope, We Use Great Plainness Of Speech: And Not As Moses, Which Put A Vail Over His Face, That The Children Of Israel Could Not Stedfastly Look To The End Of That Which Is Abolished: But Their Minds Were Blinded: For Until This Day Remaineth The Same Vail Untaken Away In The Reading Of The Old Testament; Which Vail Is Done Away In Christ. But Even Unto This Day, When Moses Is Read, The Vail Is Upon Their Heart. Nevertheless, When It Shall Turn To The Lord, The Vail Shall Be Taken Away. Now The Lord Is That Spirit: And Where The Spirit Of The Lord Is, There Is Liberty. But We All, With Open Face Beholding As In A Glass The Glory Of The Lord, Are Changed Into The Same Image From Glory To Glory, Even As By The Spirit Of The Lord.

Galatians 4:21 

Tell Me, Ye That Desire To Be Under The Law, Do Ye Not Hear The Law?

Galatians 4:29 

But As Then He That Was Born After The Flesh Persecuted Him That Was Born After The Spirit, Even So, It Is Now.

You are no longer flesh, YOU ARE SPIRIT!
