The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit
that we are children of God...
Romans 8:16 ESV
The Spirit Himself... bears witness with our spirit...
According to the law... two witnesses were required... to put another to death...
On the evidence of two witnesses or of three witnesses
the one who is to die shall be put to death;
a person shall not be put to death on the evidence of one witness.
Deuteronomy 17:5 ESV
...or make a charge... of any kind...
A single witness shall not suffice against a person for any crime
or any wrong in connection with any offense that he has committed.
Only on the evidence of two witnesses or of three witnesses
shall a charge be established.
Deuteronomy 19:15 ESV
Here God says... there are two witnesses... to the death of our flesh... the Spirit Himself... and... our spirit...
You know... that you know... that you know...
Those things you just know...? you know just because...?
It is that knowledge... along with the testimony of the Holy Spirit... that you are a child of God...
Clear evidence that you... your natural fleshly self... is dead...
We no longer have to listen to... or obey... our flesh... when it comes to temptations... desires... that put us out of sync with the Spirit...
Therefore, dear brothers and sisters,
you have no obligation to do what your sinful nature
urges you to do.
Romans 8:12 NLT
The proof has been given... heed it...
I have been crucified with Christ.
It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.
And the life I now live in the flesh
I live by faith in the Son of God,
who loved me and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:20 ESV
You are reborn...
a new creation...
heirs to a new life...
