Romans

Righteousness for the Unrighteous

Title: Free to Live

Text: Romans 6:12-14

Date: October 4, 2026

The Big Idea of Romans:

Since we have been brought from death to life, we can live by the grace that sets us free.

• Stop Letting Sin Call the Shots (Romans 6:12)
  - Sin still exists and will continue to tempt us, but it does not make our decisions for us.
  - Getting rid of sin does not happen automatically. It is a fight we need to enter into.

• Pay Attention to What You Are Handing Over (Romans 6:13)
  - We no longer submit ourselves to sin and instead offer ourselves to God.

• Sin Will Not Be Your Master (Romans 6:14)
  - Sin will not rule over you because we are under grace.
  - Sin will still tempt us, but it no longer gets to own us.
