Dear Sin, You Don't Own me

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.
