Romans 6:12-18

12Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey its desires.

13And do not offer any parts of it to sin as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God, and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness.

14For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law but under grace.

15What then? Should we sin because we are not under the law but under grace? Absolutely not!

16Don’t you know that if you offer yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of that one you obey  — either of sin leading to death or of obedience leading to righteousness?

17But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching to which you were handed over,

18and having been set free from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness.
