Romans 6:12-16

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

13and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness.

14For sin will have no mastery over you, because you are not under law but under grace.

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

16Do you not know that if you present yourselves as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or obedience resulting in righteousness?
