Romans 6:8-19

[8] Now  if  we be dead  with  Christ,  we believe  that  also  live  with him:  [9] Knowing  that  Christ  being raised  from  the dead  dieth  no more;  death  no more  dominion over  him.  [10] For  in that he died,  unto sin  once:  but  in that  he liveth,  unto God.  [11] Likewise  reckon  also  yourselves  dead  indeed  unto sin,  but  alive  unto God  through  Jesus  Christ  [12] not  sin  therefore  reign  in  mortal  body,  that  ye should obey  it  in  the lusts  thereof.  [13] Neither  yield ye  members  as instruments  of unrighteousness  unto sin:  but  yield  yourselves  unto God,  those that are alive  from  the dead,  and  members  as instruments  of righteousness  unto God.  [14] For  sin  not  have dominion over  for  not  under  the law,  but  under  grace.  [15] What  then?  shall we sin,  because  not  under  the law,  but  under  grace?  God forbid.  [16] Know ye  not,  that  to whom  ye yield  yourselves  servants  to  obey,  his servants  to whom  ye obey;  whether  of sin  unto  death,  or  of obedience  unto  righteousness?  [17] But  God  be thanked,  that  the servants  of sin,  but  ye have obeyed  from  the heart  that form  of doctrine  which  was delivered you.  [18] then  made free  from  sin,  ye became the servants  of righteousness.  [19] I speak  after the manner of men  because  of the infirmity  flesh:  for  as  ye have yielded  members  servants  to uncleanness  and  to iniquity  unto  iniquity;  even so  now  yield  members  servants  to righteousness  unto  holiness.
