Romans 6:10-15

¹⁰For the death that he died was a death to sin, once and for all. But the life that he now lives, he lives for God.

¹¹So let it be with you — regard yourselves as dead to sin, but as living for God, through union with Christ Jesus.

¹²Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal bodies and compel you to obey its cravings.

¹³Do not offer any part of your bodies to sin, in the cause of unrighteousness, but once for all offer yourselves to God (as those who, though once dead, now have life), and devote every part of your bodies to the cause of righteousness.

¹⁴For sin will not lord it over you. You are living under the reign, not of Law, but of love.

¹⁵What follows, then? Are we to sin because we are living under the reign of love and not of Law? Heaven forbid!
