Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. Romans 6.12
For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace Romans 6:14
What fool would want such a king—a tyrant, a thief, a murderer—who rewards his subjects with fear, shame, and death? at fool would want such a king—a tyrant, a thief, a murderer—who rewards his subjects with fear, shame, and death?
Sin cannot be dethroned unless we have a new king; if there is no new king, sin will continue to reign. When grace reigns, sin is overthrown. Grace destroys the power of sin and the love of sin.
There cannot be two rulers for the Christian, sin is a former king and will never ascend to the throne again.
As it is impossible to be saved without grace, so it is impossible to be sanctified without grace.
All those who have tried to overcome sin on their own have failed, and they know that it is not possible. By God’s grace, we defeat sin.
We cannot get rid of that evil king, the sin by demanding his resignation. It must be killed!
