Romans Chapter 6: Sanctification, Yielding Ourselves as Bondmen

The Importance of Grace in Sanctification

Grace is the key to sanctification, the process of being made holy. Without grace, it would be impossible for us to live a life pleasing to God. Our union with Christ, including our identification with His death, burial, and resurrection, is the foundation of sanctification. We must live in the reality of these eternal facts and respond to God's grace by yielding ourselves to Him.

The Response of Yielding

Sanctification requires our cooperation. We must actively yield ourselves to God and allow Him to work in our lives. This involves both objective knowledge of the facts of our union with Christ and subjective, conscious knowledge of His sanctifying work in our experience. Yielding to God leads to strength and growth in our Christian walk.

We Are All Bondmen

All mankind are slaves to something, whether it be sin, the law, or God. As believers, we have been set free from sin and the law, but we are called to willingly become bondmen of Jesus Christ. This means surrendering our lives to Him and allowing Him to be Lord of all. Only then can we experience true freedom and holiness.

Two Paths

We have two choices: to obey sin and unrighteousness or to obey God in Christ. One path leads to death and loss, while the other leads to eternal life
