To recognize sin as sin, we must know the Word of God. We must saturate ourselves with His Word cultivating hearts that desire to obey God as we understand and take sin seriously. Consider listening to the following sermons by Dr. Richard Caldwell that will encourage us in our walk with Christ to do these very things: The Certainty of New Life The Application of Doctrine Salvation's New Abilities Why Grace Meets Objections The Answer to Grace Abuse Our Death With Jesus No Chance to Repent Worship and the Mortification of Sin The Believing Life Living in Hostile Territory - Part 1 The War Within The Sin of Adultery The Children of God in this World Threats to God's Children "How To Mortify Sins" | Watch this episode on Vimeo {"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@id":"https:\/\/straighttruth.net\/how-to-mortify-sins\/#arve-vimeo-799981848656f3ccc76768827393104","type":"VideoObject","embedURL":"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/799981848?h=df41bed6be&dnt=1&app_id=122963&html5=1&title=1&byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=0","name":"How To Mortify Sins","thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/straighttruth.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/STP-S23-SPED-EP04-How-to-Mortify-Sins.jpg","uploadDate":"2023-03-09","description":"How To Mortify Sins"} Follow Us On Vimeo Listen to the Audio Podcast Subscribe on iPhone Subscribe on Android Subscribe on Spotify How To Mortify Sins If sin remains with/in us until glorification, how do we mortify them? If mortifying sin means killing it, how do we actually do that? If we kill our sin, why does it remain, and why do we go on in sin?   This week on the Straight Truth Podcast, Dr. Richard Caldwell and Dr. Josh Philpot discuss the mortification of sin. What does it mean to kill it? What does it look like to kill sin? And if we are taking the steps necessary to kill sin in our lives, why does it not go away? These are questions we need answers to if we are to grow and progress in the Christian life. Without understanding our sin and dealing with it ongoingly, we can stifle our sanctification process, bringing dishonor and shame to our Lord who bought us. In Christ, we are new creatures. Daily we must put off sin and put on Christ. Listen in as Dr. Caldwell opens the Word of God and helps us to understand this process of mortifying our sins.   Dr. Caldwell affirms that on this side of glorification, we will not be perfected, and sins will reappear. Mortification means that we have to go on putting those sins to death. Putting them to death means that we deal with all our sin issues in light of our real death to sin and in light of our real new life in Jesus Christ. We must deal with sin in accordance with the truth as it is in Jesus.   Dr. Caldwell shares Romans 6:5-11. He tells us that it teaches us that we know a real freedom right now with respect to sin because of what Jesus has done for us. Jesus came into the world to die on behalf of our sins. He has accomplished that. It is finished. It is done. There is something about Jesus' death to sin that informs the believers' death to sin. Before Christ, we were enslaved to sin,
