Romans 6:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ Yes, when Christ died, he died to defeat the power of sin one time—enough for all time. He now has a new life, and his new life is with God. ¹¹ In the same way, you should see yourselves as being dead to the power of sin and alive with God through Christ Jesus.

¹² So, do not let sin control you in your life here on earth. You must not be ruled by the things your sinful self makes you want to do.
