Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ

Continuing in the Romans series, chapter 6: Through Jesus' sacrifice, we have been given the gift of freedom. We've been saved by grace and died to sin. We are responsible for whether or not we are obedient to God. It is a choice. We can take or deny this gift. Our hand is not forced. What will we choose to do with this freedom? Will we continue to choose sin or will we act in accordance with our new identity and live according to God's ways? We can't be content trying only to mend what is broken. What God wants for us is not a near death experience with resuscitation, but to die completely to sin and be reborn.
