WE ARE DEAD MEN WALKING.
[Romans 6:1-17]
One dilemma and battle of many a believer is overcoming SIN and GUILT. And it is matter of reconciling our two identities ~ DEAD with Christ, ALIVE in Christ_
The Bible offers only ONE REMEDY for sin – death! (vs.7) And we died with Christ. Why then the battle? *It is a battle of THE WILL* – what you choose to do with yourself. For between our POSITION of death with Christ and our CONDITION of a victorious life in Christ is the discipline of our COMMITMENT.
“STOP offering the parts of your body to sin as instruments of unrighteousness. INSTEAD, offer yourselves to God as people who have been brought from death to life and the parts of your body as instruments of righteousness to God” – Rom. 6:13, ISV
For us not to COMMIT SIN, our lives must be totally COMMITED TO GOD. *”A ‘part-time’ believer can hardly enjoy a full-time God”
