Today we begin the third section: Sanctification (Romans 6-8). The Bible calls us saints for a reason. In Christ we are saints, not sinners. In short, there are two types of people: the saints and the ain’ts.
This is a chapter about soaring over sin. Among other things, it states that in Christ we have died to sin (6:2, 11), have been set free from sin (6:7, 22) and sin no longer has dominion over us (6:14) with the result that we can bring forth fruit unto sanctification (6:21-22).
We forget to reckon on/count on the truth that we died to sin. As Christians, we sin because we choose to sin. We cannot say “the devil made me do it.” In Christ, sin's dominion over us has been broken.
