Limerick



A life of sin can bring us woe
But if we choose a different road
We’ll be set free from sin’s control
And we can live a life made whole
For this is what the Lord has showed

Potential actions to take in response



One practical way to respond to the teaching of Romans 6.1-11 is to consider how we can apply the principles of the passage to our own lives. In this passage, Paul explains that we have become dead to sin and new life in Christ. We can apply this teaching to our own lives by committing to live in a way that honors God and His Word. This means striving to live a life of holiness and righteousness, avoiding sinful activities and behaviors, and instead focusing on growing spiritually and serving others. We can also practice forgiveness and grace, being willing to forgive those who have sinned against us and extending grace to those who need it. As Paul states in Romans 6:11, it is important to “reckon” ourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. This means that we must choose to reject sin and embrace holiness, and strive to serve God and His purposes.
