Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Romans 6:12-16

Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. (13) Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. (14) For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. (15) What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. (16) Know... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Romans 6:16-20

16-20 Every man is the servant of the master to whose commands he yields himself; whether it be the sinful dispositions of his heart, in actions which lead to death, or the new and spiritual obedience implanted by regeneration. The apostle rejoiced now they obeyed from the heart the gospel, into which they were delivered as into a mould. As the same metal becomes a new vessel, when melted and recast in another mould, so the believer has become a new creature. And there is great difference in... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Romans 6:1-99

Romans 6 THAT WHICH WE have thus far learned of the Gospel from this epistle has been a question of what God has declared Himself to be on our behalf, that which He has wrought for us by the death and resurrection of Christ, and which we receive in simple faith. In it all God has been having, if we may so say, His say toward us in blessing. Chapter 6 opens with the pertinent question, “What shall we say then?” This signalizes the fact that another line of thought is now about to open... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Romans 6:15-18

The Service of Righteousness. The impelling power of this service: v. 15. What then? Shall we sin because we are not under the Law, but under grace? God forbid! v. 16. Know ye not that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey, whether of sin unto death or of obedience unto righteousness? v. 17. but God be thanked that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. v. 18. Being,... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Romans 6:12-23

Third Section.—The principial freedom of Christians from the service of sin to death, and their actual departure there from and entrance into the service of righteousness unto life by the power of the death of Jesus. (Believers should live in the consciousness that they are dead to sin, just as even the slave is freed by death.)Romans 6:12-2312Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in13[omit it in]28 the lusts thereof.

“Sin Shall not Have Dominion” Romans 6:12-23 Standing with Christ on the resurrection side of death, we must present our whole being to God for His use. We have left forever behind, nailed to the Cross, the body of sin, Colossians 2:14 , and henceforth must see to it that every faculty shall become a weapon in God’s great warfare against evil. Let your powers be monopolized by God, so that there shall be no room left for the devil, Ephesians 4:27 . All serve some higher power, but which?... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Romans 6:1-23

The apostle declared, "We died to sin," that is, we were set free from our relationship to sin. On that basis he asked his question, How can we live in that to which we have died? Taking baptism as an illustration, he showed that it is the sign of death and resurrection. Therefore the injunction, "Even so reckon ye also yourselves to be dead unto sin, but alive unto God in Christ Jesus." The whole new man is to be yielded to God, and his members are to become instruments of righteousness unto... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Romans 6:1-23

Shall We Continue in Sin? Romans 6:1-23 INTRODUCTORY WORDS Grace never gives a margin to sin. There are some who go so far as to use "salvation by Grace" as an excuse for laxity in their morals; they vainly imagine that the saved may live as they list. The great question that confronts us today is asked in the opening verse of our Scripture lesson (Romans 6:1 ): "What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that Grace may abound?" Romans 5:1-21 has demonstrated the power of... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 6:1-23

Salvation To The Uttermost (5:1-8:39). The depths of our sin having been revealed in Romans 1:17 to Romans 3:23, and Jesus Christ’s activity, (His activity in bringing about our salvation through the cross by means of the reckoning to us of His righteousness by faith), having been made known in Romans 3:24 to Romans 4:25, Paul now sets about demonstrating the consequences of this for all true believers (Romans 5:1 to Romans 8:39). He wants us immediately to recognise that being ‘accounted as... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Romans 6:15-23

We Are Therefore No Longer To Be Servants Of Sin, But Servants Of Righteousness And Of God, No Longer Earning Death As Our Wages, But Receiving The Free Gift Of Eternal Life In Christ Jesus Our Lord (6:15-23). The question now is, ‘If we are not under the Law but under grace, does that mean that we can sin freely?’ To those who understand what it means to be ‘under grace’ the question answers itself. As has already been emphasised to be ‘under grace’ is to be within the sphere of the loving... read more
