Christ’s Finished Work & Christian Consecration (Pt 5): The Flesh-Killing Power of the Word of God
Description
Adrian the Beloved kicks off by showing the eternalness of the Word, the inherent power of the Word to create, uphold, and perform the will of God, and even override the will of man to ensure God’s purposes stand sure. He explains the Word as the regenerative component of the new birth, and how this same Word becomes a powerful weapon in dealing with the flesh.
This sermon reveals the Word of God not only as comfort and guidance, but as a Spirit-empowered instrument that puts the flesh to death. The “flesh” refers to the sinful nature that resists God — it cannot be managed or disciplined; it must be crucified.
The Word exposes sin, confronts hidden motives, renews the mind, and forms Christ within. As the Spirit applies the Word, sinful desires lose their grip and obedience becomes delight, not struggle. True spiritual maturity is not measured by how much Scripture we know, but by how much of the flesh is dying and how much of Christ is being revealed.
