Day 34 is ready, and today’s lesson may be the most practically confrontational we have covered in all of Romans 8.
Paul has established that the Spirit lives in you and resurrection power is at work within you. Now he draws the conclusion that changes everything about how you engage with sin: you do not owe it anything. Not a moment of your time. Not a response to its demands. Not a compromise with its insistence.
And more than that, Paul shows us that the goal is never to simply knock sin back. The goal is to put it to death entirely, by the Spirit’s power, following the model of the cross itself.

The questions today follow Romans 8:12-13 carefully and build toward the gospel heart of the lesson, that everything Christ endured on the cross, He endured for you, and that changes both the motivation and the method for dealing with sin.
As always, earlier lessons are available in the archive if you are catching up. And when you are ready for today, here is that link once more:
