We know that the person we used to be was
crucified with Jesus to put an end to sin in our bodies.
Because of this we are no longer slaves to sin.
The person who has died has been freed from sin.
So consider yourselves dead to sin's power but
living for God in the power Christ Jesus gives you.
When
you offer yourselves to someone to obey him,
You
are
slaves to the one you obey.
When
you are a slave of sin it leads to death.
If you
are
slaves to obedience it leads to
righteousness.
You
have been set free from sin and have become
slaves to righteousness , leading to holiness.
Slaves to God means that the benefit thereof
is holiness and the result eternal life.
Because
you obey you are a slave of the one you obey.
You
are dead to sin but alive to God in Jesus Christ.
Sin
shall not be your master, because you are not under the law, but under Grace.
Rom
6:11-23
