3 Principles For a Victorious and Holy Life
The apostle Paul outlined three practical principles necessary to cooperate with the grace of
God.
Reckon [see] yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ…12
Do not
let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.
13
And do not present
your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God
as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness…
(Rom.
6:11-13)
The Knowing Principle (Rom.
6:11): You must know who you are in Christ and what you have
received from Him (the gift of righteousness) as well as the truth about God’s personality and
emotions.
You are to reckon, or see yourself, as dead to sin (to sin’s penalty, shame, and
mandatory control over you) and alive to God (fully accepted and indwelt by God) because of
Jesus’ work on the cross.
These are powerful truths you must know to be effective in your faith
and repentance.
