Romans 6:12

Formerly Dead To Sin, Now Alive In Christ

¹¹ So you also thus reckon yourselves dead unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ. ¹² Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body that you should obey the lusts of it: ¹³ neither present your members arms of iniquity unto sin; but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members arms of righteousness unto God.
