The entrance of sin.

Romans 5:12
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned—

Sin entered the world through one man, Adam. God created the earth and gave Adam authority and dominion over it. Adam declared independence from God and connected himself to Satan, who is sin. The day Adam disobeyed God, sin and death entered the planet.

All around the world we can see the consequences of Adams mistake, sin and death dominating the planet. This is the reason many ignorant people question the existence and the character of God. Well, in the fullness of time, God sent forth his son, Jesus to redeem mankind from clutches of sin and death. By his death, burial and resurrection, Jesus defeated sin and death and gave the ones who believe in Him, dominion over sin and death. This simply means you can triumph over sin and death because of what Jesus did for you. Sin and  death is still in the world but 'In Christ' is the only place where sin and death have no power. The body of Christ is the only body that cannot be touched by sin and death because Jesus, the head of the body of Christ has defeated sin and death.

Friend, the day you accepted Jesus, you were included in the body of Christ as an esteemed member in a specific place for a specific work. Because you are in Christ, sin and death has no power over you. As you walk in the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus, you will walk free from the law of sin and death which is still in the world today. The law of the Spirit of life is the law of the word, it is the law of love, which simply means obedience. Jesus said if you love me, you will obey me. The obedience of Jesus brought you into the body of Christ, but its your obedience that keeps you free from the law of sin and death. Do the word, follow the Holy Spirit and let the world see your light. Live like Jesus! Glory! Jesus is Lord!
