Can a believer still let sin reign after being set free? Romans 6:7-12 reveals the shocking truth about old Adam, free will, and God's discipline.
✝️ In this verse-by-verse study of Romans 6:7-12, the teaching digs into one of Paul's most sobering doctrines: that the old Adamic nature was crucified with Christ — and yet believers still face a daily choice. Cross-references to Hebrews 7:27 and Hebrews 9:11-28 establish that Christ died once for all, never to die again. Then Romans 6:11-12 delivers the challenge: reckon yourself dead to old Adam and alive to God — and don't let sin reign in your mortal body.
💡 Key Topics Covered:
• Romans 6:7 — He that is dead is freed from old Adam — the courtroom illustration
• Romans 6:8 — Dead with Christ, we shall also live with Him
• Hebrews 7:27 — Christ offered Himself once — not daily like the Aaronic priests
• Hebrews 9:11-28 — Christ as High Priest of a greater tabernacle, entering once for all
• 2 Corinthians 4:3-4 — The god of this world blinds the minds of unbelievers
• Romans 6:11 — "Reckon" yourselves dead to sin — what that word really means
• Romans 6:12 — Let not old Adam reign in your mortal body — a choice, not a command
• The sin unto death — what happens when a believer refuses God's discipline
