Romans 6:15-23

from Understanding Christianity · host Sean Cole

Sean's new book, Compassionate Calvinism: Defending the Doctrines of Grace Without Being a Jerk, has been released. You can purchase it here: https://www.amazon.com/Compassionate-Calvinism-Defending-Doctrines-Without-ebook/dp/B0FZDNLGK4/ref=sr_1_1 https://shop.g3min.org/products/compassionate-calvinism-defending-the-doctrines-of-grace-without-being-a-jerk In the second half of Chapter 6, the imagery of “slavery” is central. Here’s the main point: As a Christian, you are free FROM sin, but that does not give you freedom TO sin. We are free from the binding enslavement of the Law of Moses that crushes us under its weight and makes us guilty, but we are not free to do whatever we want because now we have a new master—the living God. There is no such thing as absolute freedom to do whatever you want, for both the non-Christian and the Christian. The question is not whether you will have a master—the question is WHO is your master and which one will you serve.
