John MacArthur Study Bible
The overarching theme of this book and particularly the first 9 chapters is introduced—reverence for God (see v. 29; 2:5; 3:7; 8:13; 9:10; 14:26, 27; cf. also Job 28:28; Ps 34:11; Ac 9:31). See Introduction: Historical and Theological Themes. This reverential awe and admiring, submissive fear is foundational for all spiritual knowledge and wisdom (cf. 2:4–6; 9:10; 15:33; Job 28:28; Ps 111:10; Ecc 12:13). While the unbeliever may make statements about life and truth, he does not have true or ultimate knowledge until he is in a redemptive relationship of reverential awe with God. Note the progression here: 1) teaching about God; 2) learning about God; 3) fearing God; 4) knowing God; and 5) imitating God’s wisdom. The fear of the Lord is a state of mind in which one’s own attitudes, will, feelings, deeds, and goals are exchanged for God’s (cf. Ps 42:1).

Just as the Israelites sang a song of deliverance from the bondage of slavery, we sing for joy, from our deliverance from sin. One day, we WILL receive the perfect crown, and perfect bodies, that will sin no more. We need not fear, for we have been redeemed!!!

Positionally, we have killed these things before God, through Jesus. The battle still rages on in our flesh, until we one day, receive our new bodies. (SEE NOTES BELOW PICTURE).

† 5:24 have crucified the flesh. One of 4 uses of “crucified” that does not refer to Christ’s crucifixion (cf. 2:20; 6:14; Ro 6:6). Here Paul states that the flesh has been executed, yet the spiritual battle still rages in the believer (see notes on Ro 7:14–25). Paul’s use looks back to the cross of Christ, where the death of the flesh and its power to reign over believers was actually accomplished (Ro 6:1–11). Christians must wait until their glorification before they are finally rid of their unredeemed humanness (Ro 8:23), yet by walking in the Spirit they can please God in this world.
