Romans 6:12
_ _ Romans 6:12-23. What practical use believers should make of their death to sin and life to God through union to the crucified Savior.
_ _ Not content with showing that his doctrine has no tendency to relax the obligations to a holy life, the apostle here proceeds to enforce these obligations.
_ _ Let not sin therefore — as a Master
_ _ reign — (The reader will observe that wherever in this section the words “Sin,” “Obedience,” “Righteousness,” “Uncleanness,” “Iniquity,” are figuratively used, to represent a Master, they are here printed in capitals, to make this manifest to the eye, and so save explanation).
_ _ in your mortal body, that ye should obey it — sin.
_ _ in the lusts thereof — “the lusts of the body,” as the Greek makes evident. (The other reading, perhaps the true one, “that ye should obey the lusts thereof,” comes to the same thing). The “body” is here viewed as the instrument by which all the sins of the heart become facts of the outward life, and as itself the seat of the lower appetites; and it is called “our mortal body,” probably to remind us how unsuitable is this reign of sin in those who are “alive from the dead.” But the reign here meant is the unchecked dominion of sin within us. Its outward acts are next referred to. |
Romans 6:12
Let not sin reign even in your mortal body — It must be subject to death, but it need not be subject to sin. |
Romans 6:12
