(Irishcast) Alive In Christ (Ps 116v9 Romans 6v11) (Justification)

“ I’m dead to that” was a phrase. I learned years ago from a Bible study teacher. It connects to this message in Roman 6:11, which says “ consider your self dead to sin.” I would say this out loud to myself when I started to fall into some temptation of self-pity. I made the mistake of sharing this insight with my three sons. Now, when I fall, prey to that feeling of being a victim, one of them will say to me, “Of course you’re dead to that aren’t you dad?” So how do we let our sinful thoughts and desires be buried so they can rest in peace (RIP) and not trouble us? You may find it possible to use this little phrase, “I’m dead to that.” And if you share this new habit with others, some of them will gladly assist you in reminding you of your need to be dead to yourself but alive to God in Christ.
