Pastor Gary Hamrick - Cornerstone Chapel - Winning the War Within - Romans 8 (Pt.2)

Sermon Preached on 4/14/2024Show more

For the Christian there is a battle within—a battle between our spirit that wants to please the Lord, and our flesh that wants to please self. In Romans 8, Paul gives us three encouraging ways that the Holy Spirit helps us to fight the battle of the flesh and spirit: He empowers us, adopts us, and prays for us. Pastor Gary explains all this in today’s teaching, “Winning the War Within.”
