Romans 5:20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
GRACE: Gods unmerited FAVOR, ruling out all human MERIT
GRACE: G-ods R-iches A-t C-hrists E-xpense
Romans 6:1-2 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
GRACE: divine influence on the heart, and its reflection in the life
GRACE: Gods GIFT and our GRATITUDE
GRACE: free FROM sin, not free TO sin
GRACE: the power to CHANGE!

YIELD YIELD
Romans 6:16 Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?

YIELD means to PRESENT yourself
YIELD means that before sin can have POWER over a believer, it must first pass through his WILL

The whole point of being a Christian is not to be set free from ANY master, but to CHANGE masters!
Romans 6:17-18 But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Exodus 21:5-6 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever. And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free: Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl; and he shall serve him for ever.
You may be able to compel people to maintain certain minimum standards by stressing duty, but the highest moral and spiritual achievements depend not upon a push but a pull. Reinhold Niebuhr
