Romans 6:12-14 Do not let sin control the way you live, do not give in to its lustful desires. Do not let any part of your body become a tool of wickedness, to be used for sinning. Instead, give yourselves completely to God since you have been given new life. And use your whole body as a tool to do what is right for the glory of God. Sin is no longer your master, for you are no longer subject to the law, which enslaves you to sin. Instead you are free by God's grace.
What a powerful message in the book of Romans.
"Sin is no longer your master," unless you choose to be a slave to it.
God gave us the free will to be a master or slave.
Do not let sin control the way you live.
Do not allow yourself to become a tool for wickedness.
It is hard, as our nature is sinful.
All of our desires come from our sinful nature. We did not choose to be sinful, that choice was made for us by Eve.
Thankfully, Jesus Christ came to redeem his people from sin by offering himself as the perfect sacrifice for a wretched people.
Our only hope is in the salvation of Jesus Christ through the faith of God's grace.
All glory to God!
