       But Paul says something interesting here, “so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin.” Wait, what’s that? Then he says, “For one who has died has been set free from sin.” Wow. These are two very dramatic statements. You mean to tell me that Christian no longer has to sin like everyone else? You mean to tell me the Christian is free not to sin? Yes, both of those statements are correct. We are no longer enslaved to sin, and we have been set free from sin. Again, Paul said, “We know that our old self was crucified with him.” So, this is the marker of a believer, one who has had their old self, the way they were before becoming saved, they have had that self crucified (put to death). If our old person is now dead, we should not seek live like we did beforehand, right? I mean, that’s only common sense.
