Listen to this song by Disciple and then continue reading. This song conveys powerful truth that we all need to hear.
Romans 6:6 says: “For we know that
our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away
with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.”
As Christians, our old selves
have been crucified with Christ on the cross. Sin has been overcome and
destroyed. And the best part of it…we are no longer slaves to sin. Sin no
longer owns us. Pain, shame, hate, and anger have no control over us anymore.
Though sin is not far and it is crouching at our door, we are no longer subject to
its power. Having been crucified with Christ, we are no longer slaves to the
former power that controlled us. Christ death has set us free to run straight
into his arms. Laugh at sin and boldly proclaim that it does not own you
anymore and that Jesus Christ is the ruler of your life.
Good song. I'm also a big fan of "Indwelling Sin" by Lecrae. Talks about a lot of the same stuff.
