Romans 6:2 (NASB20)
Far from it! How shall we who died to sin still live in it..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This scripture is putting forth the absurdity of a believer still living in sin, for this is something that should not be….

But why fore…?

Because when a believer sees what their salvation in Christ consists of, they are set free from sin… There is no ambiguity in this truth, for scripture says ‘Far from it’, that being an absolutely not, and then puts forth the reason of the absoluteness of this truth….

That being the fact that one has ‘died to sin’, then the question, ‘how can we still live in it’…? The answer being; if one does not know they have died to sin… This is the truth being brought forth in this scripture, the absolute fact of this truth; ‘that he that has died is freed from sin’…. So therefore freedom from sin is tied directly to one knowing one has died to sin… So then knowing what the phrase ‘died to sin’ means, would make or break one being made free from sin…

Scripture brings forth this truth, that sin is not the something that has died, it is the sinner themselves that is that something that has died… This is a most critical truth, sin is not the thing that has died, but the sinner…

For understanding that all sin needs a life form to respond to its promptings, for with no life form to respond to its promptings the desires of sin are left undone, this being, the understanding of how one is made free from sin… For consider this truth; that when one dies, all the influences of this world become powerless over that one…

This therefore is the meaning, that one has died to sin, the understanding being, a most critical truth if one would be made free from sin…

Be blessed in seeing into a most critical truth….
