Let your POSITION transform your CONDITION. For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. Rom. 6:10-12 Is Jesus dying to sin? No. He died to sin once. Likewise, we are dead indeed to sin and alive to God. This is not a state of mind. This is a state of fact that we need to make a state of mind. In our inner man, we are not dying to sin, we are dead to sin and born again - alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord. We have new life in Christ that empowers us to transform our earthly lives! As we reckon this to be so or as we set our minds on this truth, we Therefore find the strength to go to war with our lusts, end the reign of sin in our mortal bodies and present them as instruments of righteousness! For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace. Rom. 6:14 We find the dominion of sin broken, not by trying to keep a set of rules, but by the grace of God - a new life that keeps us!
