Romans 6:5-11
You are going to serve someone or something. The question is: who or what is it? If you are in Christ, you get to decide if you will walk in according to the old man of sin, or if you walk in the ways of Christ. If we try to live in our own strength, we will certainly fail. It's not enough to just hate sin; we must love Jesus instead. We will continually be fighting sin, but He must be our chief joy and desire! Jesus really died, and He really rose from the dead, and He will never die again. That's our proof that we are no longer slaves to sin. Death and sin do not have dominion over Christ; and since we are in Him, they have no dominion over us either. We may now consider ourselves to be dead to sin, and alive as a new creation in Jesus. Who will you love more: the old man of sin, or the Lord Jesus?
