12 Therefore, do not let sin rule your mortal bodies so that you obey their desires. 13 Stop offering[a] the parts of your body[b] to sin as instruments of unrighteousness. Instead, offer yourselves to God as people who have been brought from death to life and the parts of your body[c] as instruments of righteousness to God. 14 For sin will not have mastery over you, because you are not under Law but under grace.
