       Turn in your Bibles, or tap in your Bible apps on your mobile devices, to Romans chapter 6. We are pressing on, starting in verse 12: “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions. Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness. For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace” (Romans 6:12-14, ESV). I remember this exact series of verses in my beginning days as a Christian, when I was in the last half of high school and shortly thereafter. These verses were significant to me because I was seeking to align different areas in my life to look more like Christ, areas that I thought needed improvement in coming out of my old life--my old way of living. And as I recall it, the pastor I was studying under said this is the formula to be free from sin, to overcome sin in one’s life. And that’s true.
