If grace covers our sins, does it actually matter how we live? In this episode, we dive into the second half of Romans 6, where the Apostle Paul tackles a provocative question: “Since God’s grace has set us free from the law, does that mean we can go on sinning?” The answer is a resounding "Of course not!" We explore the powerful metaphor of slavery and the reality that we are all "slaves" to whatever we choose to obey—whether that is sin leading to death, or obedience leading to righteousness. In this episode, we discuss: * The "Trench" of Sin: How small compromises can carve deep paths in our lives, making sin easier and obedience harder. * Lordship vs. Mastery: Understanding that calling Jesus "Lord" is a daily commitment to follow His lead as our new Master. * Fruit vs. Works: Why salvation isn't earned by works, but will always produce "fruit" in a transformed life. * Take Up Your Mat: A look at the healing of the paralytic in Mark 2 and why Jesus commands us to carry the very things that once bound us. "But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord." — Romans 6:22–23
