Verse from Romans

“因为生命之灵的律在基督耶稣里使我自由，脱离了罪和死的律。”
‭‭罗马书‬ ‭8:2‬ ‭

“For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:2‬ ‭

Some of the spiritual giants of the church were profoundly changed by Paul’s Spirit-inspired words in Romans. One of those was Martin Luther (1483–1546), a German theologian, writer, and reformer of the church.

As a monk, Luther struggled with the impossible task of trying to be righteous on his own merits or works. The words of Romans 1:17, “The righteous will live by faith,” led Luther to realize that justification (being made holy) is through faith by God’s grace alone.

God through His Word lifts the burden of sin and sets us free.
