Dead people don't sin

Romans 6:7
For he who has died has been freed from sin.

There are two ways to stop sinning; die and die to self.
If I continue to sin, I must not be dead, either in the flesh or in my self.

To live for myself is to live for sin.
To die in Christ is to be forgiven of my sin.
To die to myself is to not sin.
To live for Christ is to listen to His Holy Spirit and obey Him alone.

Lord, teach me to die to myself daily and live only for You. Amen.
