1/31/2013 - Romans "Believers are dead to sin, alive to God"

Scripture:
Romans 6: 19 - "I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification.

Observation / Application:

I think this is good reflections of all of us, and that counts me as well. The verse is spoken in human terms, straight forward so that we can understand and see how so wrong our life is when we let our self control our own destiny. We are such a weak to temptation and we are so easy to be tempted to do what is best interest of our own self. We are just selfish individuals who is care free of others. The more we stink deeper into this temptation and life in absence of God, anything we do seems to go wrong. We wonder, and we get angry at God for not making it right? But whose fault is that to start with? Once we sink deeper metaphorically speaking our freedom is limited. We are tied down with sins and darkness that will continue to lead us into the life of sin and darkness. But need to be a slave to God, God's slave who sacrificed his Son Jesus Christ to save us and bring us to righteousness and cleanse our sins. Leading us to purity and sanctification  Once we accept God and his gift of freedom, we allow our God to heal our wounds and slave us to freedom righteous. Than we will see clear of our life, and the worst can be the best, as God will work his miracle in our life. For God does not leave us and abandon us in the darkness regardless. For he has plan for everyone and every situation will lead to greater gift of life.
