God tells us that anyone who has surrendered his or her life to Jesus fully, as Lord and Savior will not face the coming final judgment of the Lake of Fire. 8 Therefore there is now no condemnation at all for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Only by surrendering your life to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, that is admitting you are a sinner and confessing your sin to Jesus will set you free from the coming eternal hell awaiting those who do not repent and surrender to Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life [a]in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.
The practices of the Old Testament are no longer needed because God sent Jesus Christ, His One and Only Son to fulfill the requirements of the Old Testament for sin, a blood sacrifice, Jesus the Lamb of God who takes away the judgment of the world. 3 For what the Law could not do, [b]weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of [c]sinful flesh and as an offering for sin, He condemned sin in the flesh, 4 so that the requirement of the Law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk [d]according to the flesh but [e]according to the Spirit.
If you continue to live “in the flesh” giving in to the sinful desires of the mind acting them out in your body, this will only lead you to an eternal hell. A mindset on following earthly things and sinful desires is hostile toward God Almighty. The mindset on sin is set on self-destruction. 5 For those who are in accord with the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are in accord with the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. 6 For the mind [f]set on the flesh is death, but the mind [g]set on the Spirit is life and peace, 7 because the mind [h]set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, 8 and those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
There is only one way to please God and that begins when you admit you are a sinner and you have sinned against Him. You must repent of your sins, which means you turn away from the things that are evil and contrary to God’s Word. You must ask Jesus Christ to be your Lord and Savior and fully surrender your life to Him.
Prayer: Dear God, I believe that Jesus is Your Son, that He died on the cross for my sins, was buried and rose from the dead on the day. God I have sinned against You. Please forgive me of my sin and Jesus come into my heart. I surrender my life to You. In Jesus Name. Amen.
