FROM TODAY’S READING (8/12/2019)...
“Sin is a monster of such awful mein
that to be hated needs but to be seen
but seen to oft familiar of face
we first endure, then pity, then embrace."
Alexander Pope
Romans 6:11-14 (NLT) So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus. Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God. Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.
