In this letter, the Apostle Paul has graciously reminded us of the freedom we have in Christ and he has exhorted us to live in that freedom. But as we have all experienced, we struggle to live like we’re free. And the reason for this struggle is because we face an internal battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit - between who we were born as and who we were born again to be. But we can rightly live in the freedom that Jesus provides by crucifying the flesh and by walking by the Spirit.
