As we continue to dive into Scripture, particularly this passage in Romans, it's important to try to glean some application points without skewing the original message. I'll be the first to mention that this application might not be perfect, nor the interpretation of the Scripture, but Christ is perfect and I pray that the Holy Spirit is guiding my heart in this study. Here are three points I can see that can help us all as Christians "walk the walk" a little taller.
Being a Christian is not just getting something (i.e. new life, freedom), it is about becoming someone. Firstly, we are now heirs to the throne of the Father and will be raised from the dead in the same way Christ was raised (6:4). Secondly, we must know who we are (6:3). Thirdly, we must believe who we are and act in a manner that reflects someone who is “alive to God in Christ Jesus (6:8, 11).”
