Under Grace, Not Sin - Romans 6:12-16
In this episode we look closely at **Epistle to the Romans 6:12–16, where the Apostle Paul calls believers to live in light of their new identity in Christ. Because Christians have been united with Christ and set free from sin’s dominion, they are no longer to let sin reign in their mortal bodies.
Paul urges believers not to present themselves as instruments of unrighteousness but instead to offer their lives to God as instruments of righteousness. This passage reminds us that grace does not lead to careless living. Instead, grace frees us from the mastery of sin so that we can live in obedience to God.
Ultimately, Paul makes a sobering point: everyone serves a master. Either we present ourselves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness. Through Christ, believers are called to live under the reign of grace and walk in faithful obedience to God.
