Romans 6:12

Formerly Dead To Sin, Now Alive In Christ

¹¹ So also ye, reckon yourselves to be indeed dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. ¹² Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body in order to obey it, in its lusts. ¹³ And do not present your body-parts as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God, as living out of the dead, and your body-parts as instruments of righteousness to God,
