Romans 6: 2 We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? (NIV)
Sin in our lives is like the boyfriend or girlfriend that you just could not say no to. You know they are bad for you and you know that any relationship with them is not going anywhere good, yet when they call you pick up the phone and talk to them. But then one day something changes and you no longer let them have influence over you. They call and you don’t answer. They come by and you ignore them like they weren’t even there. You become dead to their allure. Well the same thing happens when we come to Christ and become a believer. That sin that used to have rule over – that sin that you used to not be able to say no to – all of the sudden you now have the ability to say “no” and not to have that sin rule over you anymore. We are dead to sin. It is about time that we lived like it. We, as Christ followers, need to understand that we are dead to sin and we don’t have to listen when temptation comes calling.
