The Provision For Daily Living--The Body Death Of The Cross
Sin is personified in Romans 5-8—
1. 5:21--A person who like a king reigns over me.
2. 6:14—who can have power over us, by Lording over people
3. 7:11—Who can deceive me into trying to do good by self-effort which kills me.
4. 7:17& 21—who can dwell in people and do things against their will
5. 7:9--It is quite alive and exceedingly active: so it must be the evil spirit of Satan, the evil one, dwelling, acting, and working in my fallen flesh.
Sin gets power over us simply because we don’t know that we are dead, and subsequently we are try to live our own lives. Col. 3:3-4.
“Dead to the law” means that I am done with trying to live my own life by outer standards.

The question is, have we Christians even heard the “Rest of the Gospel?” My good friend, Dan Stone, wrote a book called “The Rest of the Gospel”." Dan’s excellent book clearly reveals the truths concerning Paul’s Romans epistle which proclaims that we are delivered daily by the indwelling resurrected life of Christ within us (Romans 5:10), and how by faith, we can know this abundant life of Christ right now.
The answer lies in the full meaning of the Cross of Christ. What is the meaning of the Cross? The infinite depths and unfathomable riches of the Cross will forever be discovered and rediscovered throughout all eternity. However, this booklet will be our attempt to bring to light some of its riches.
The Bible in Colossians 1:20-22 declares that there are two aspects of the Cross. It says, “Having made peace through the blood of His Cross, by Him, reconcile all things unto Himself.” Then in verse 22, “In the body of His flesh through death to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in His sight.” Also, the book of Romans unfolds to us its revelation of the blood and the body. The first five chapters present to us salvation by faith and the forgiveness of our sins by the blood of Christ (Romans 3:25; 5:9), while Romans 6-8 presents the provision of the bodily death and resurrection (Romans 7:4).
The blood of Christ satisfied God’s justice, while the body death of Christ satisfies us by the power of His resurrected life daily saving us from sin’s dominion. “Much more [certainly], now that we are reconciled, that we shall be saved (daily delivered from sins’ dominion) through His [resurrection] life” (Romans 5:10-Amp).
“How shall we that are dead to sin
live any longer therein?”
(Romans 6:2)
God became a human being by taking the form of His son, Jesus (John 1:14). Jesus had to become flesh because it takes a human to deliver the human race. Animal sacrific
