In Romans 8:2, we see that Paul makes reference to two Laws: the Law of the Spirit of Sin and Death (Flesh) and the Law of the Spirit of Christ (Holy Spirit). One of these Laws conquered the other. The Law of the Flesh causes a war in the mind, seeks to imprison the believer, and hinders the believer from wanting to do right. But the Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ enables the believer to have victory! Pastor Murphy's summary: The Holy Spirit imparts new life to the believer, because he is in Christ, and that new life in the believer now enables him and sets him free from the dominating power of the sin nature within.
