okay verse number four whosoever committed sin transgresseth also the law for sin is the transgression of the law and he know that he was manifested to take away our sins and in him is no sin so what does this mean in verse number four well first and foremost this basically debunks this whole saying that you know mainstream christianity likes to say where it's like well what sin for you is not necessarily sin for me and what sin for me is not necessarily sin for you wrong sin is the transgression of the law folks and whatever god says is sinful for you it's sinful for me too because if god says it's a transgression of the law that's what it is we never want to go down this path of teaching for doctrines the commandments of men and say well this is sinful and you know this is sinful and you know doing this is sinful when you can never point to a verse in the bible that specifically says this is a transgression of the law you understand but number but also what it's really doing right here in verse number four is it's building up to what he's going to talk about in the next in the next couple verses now when he says whosoever committed sin transgresseth also the law for sin is the transgression of the law you got to keep in mind that when we sin it's not our spirit that sins when we sin it's not our flesh it's not our it's not our excuse me when we say it's not our spirit it's not the new man it's not the son of god when we sin it's only our flesh that's doing that okay so who's the only part of our being that transgresses the law our flesh why well the bible says in roman chapter 8 that the flesh is not subject to the law of god neither indeed can be so your flesh cannot subject itself to the law of god it will never do that that's why it's foolish to say you're just gonna you will yourself to obey god you're just gonna make your body just obey the lord your your flesh doesn't want to do those things you know in order for you to obey god you gotta be filled with the spirit you gotta walk in the spirit because we delight in the law of god after the inward man the flesh does not desire to be under the laws of god but the spirit does the spirit desires to fulfill the law of god it delights the law of god you know your flesh doesn't want to hear preaching your flesh doesn't want to hear hard preaching you know what wants to hear hard preaching is your spirit you know when you come to church and you hear a sermon on doctrine or your sermon a topical sermon on the bible you know your spirit loves that and you say well you know i don't really delight in that then you probably walk it in the flesh you're probably walking in the flesh but folks if you're walking in the spirit you won't despise prophesying even if i'm preaching against you like are you preaching against me yes anytime someone's coming to me and said you're preaching against me i'll be like yep is that what i'm supposed to be doing when we come to church yeah but you're talking specifically about me yeah i'm glad you know that so change get right with the lord then you know i won't tell him all that but i want to but isn't it true and you know what the spirit loves the truth it loves the bible it loves the truth now don't go around asking people so did you like that or not are you in the flesh or in the spirit you know examine yourself if you feel like i'm stepping on your toes and you don't like what's being said hey don't kill the messenger it's just showing you that you're probably in the flesh and here's how you correct that you just repent of that and then you delight in the law of god after the inward man
