Romans 6 answers questions that people have asked for centuries: Is it possible to change morally? Is it possible to break destructive habits and stop sinning? Can even addicts or habitual liars change for the better? If so, how? How do those of us who are under grace live without being dominated by sin? How are we to live lives of overcoming victory? We know that freedom is not freedom to sin but freedom from sin. We got it so wrong in America today. Do we really think that statesmen worked and soldiers died so we can become bad beyond belief? Someone somewhere said so simply, when America ceases to be good, she will cease to be great. Identity is powerful in the lives of people. We are always living out an identity. Christian, your identity is not in your sin but in Christ! Yet, many are trying to live the Christian life without Christ. There are attempting to face each day with their old identity, not knowing and living out their new identity as a new creation in Christ. We must remind ourselves who we are and whose we are, again and again. We belong to Jesus. We are Christians. You have a new identity in Christ. You must know this, count this to be true and yield to it by faith. This is why identity is so important. We must become who we already are in Christ.
