Sin will no longer control you like a master. That’s because the law does not rule you. God’s grace has set you free.

罪必不能作你们的主；因你们不在律法之下，乃在恩典之下。

爾不法是主、而恩是主、則罪末由服爾矣、

爾曹不屬律法、乃屬恩寵、故罪不復轄爾、○

且罪亦不能為爾之主矣。無他、爾不隸於法而隸於恩故耳。

For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.

For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.

Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God’s grace.

For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law but under grace.

For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under the Law but under grace.

Because of what Christ Jesus has done, you are free. You are now controlled by the law of the Holy Spirit who gives you life. The law of the Spirit frees you from the law of sin that brings death.

But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the authority of the law.

This is the covenant I will establish with the people of Israel after that time, says the Lord. I will put my laws in their minds. I will write them on their hearts. I will be their God. And they will be my people.

But then the chosen time came. God sent his Son. A woman gave birth to him. He was born under the authority of the law.He came to set free those who were under the authority of the law. He wanted us to be adopted as children with all the rights children have.

So don’t let sin rule your body, which is going to die. Don’t obey its evil desires.

He has given us the power to serve under a new covenant. The covenant is not based on the written Law of Moses. It comes from the Holy Spirit. The written Law kills, but the Spirit gives life.The Law was written in letters on stone. Even though it was a way of serving God, it led to death. But even that way of serving God came with glory. The glory lasted for only a short time. Even so, the people of Israel couldn’t look at Moses’ face very long.Since all this is true, won’t the work of the Holy Spirit be even more glorious?The law that condemns people to death had glory. How much more glory does the work of the Spirit have! His work makes people right with God.

My brothers and sisters, when Christ died you also died as far as the law is concerned. Then it became possible for you to belong to him. He was raised from the dead. Now our lives can be useful to God.The power of sin used to control us. The law stirred up sinful desires in us. So the things we did resulted in death.But now we have died to what used to control us. We have been set free from the law. Now we serve in the new way of the Holy Spirit. We no longer serve in the old way of the written law.What should we say then? That the law is sinful? Not at all! Yet I wouldn’t have known what sin was unless the law had told me. The law says,“ Do not want what belongs to other people.”( Exodus 20:17; Deuteronomy 5:21) If the law hadn’t said that, I would not have known what it was like to want what belongs to others.But the commandment gave sin an opportunity. Sin caused me to want all kinds of things that belong to others. A person can’t sin by breaking a law if that law doesn’t exist.Before I knew about the law, I was alive. But then the commandment came. Sin came to life, and I died.I found that the commandment that was supposed to bring life actually brought death.When the commandment gave sin the opportunity, sin tricked me. It used the commandment to put me to death.

In the past, God gave us grace through the law of Moses. Now, grace and truth come to us through Jesus Christ.

The law was given so that sin would increase. But where sin increased, God’s grace increased even more.Sin ruled and brought death. But grace rules in the lives of those who are right with God. The grace of God brings eternal life. That’s because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done.

So if the Son of Man sets you free, you will really be free.

What the law says, it says to those who are ruled by the law. Its purpose is to shut every mouth and make the whole world accountable to God.So no one will be considered right with God by obeying the law. Instead, the law makes us more aware of our sin.

Brothers and sisters, we have a duty. Our duty is not to live under the power of sin.

Before faith in Christ came, we were guarded by the law. We were locked up until this faith was made known.

And if they are chosen by grace, then they can’t work for it. If that were true, grace wouldn’t be grace anymore.

She is going to have a son. You must give him the name Jesus. That’s because he will save his people from their sins.”

Israel, put your hope in the Lord, because the Lord’ s love never fails. He sets his people completely free.He himself will set Israel free from all their sins.

What should we say then? Should we sin because we are not ruled by the law but by God’s grace? Not at all!

You who want to be under the authority of the law, tell me something. Don’t you know what the law says?

The promise is based on God’s grace. The promise comes by faith. All of Abraham’s children will certainly receive the promise. And it is not only for those who are ruled by the law. Those who have the same faith that Abraham had are also included. He is the father of us all.

He gave himself for us. By doing that, he set us free from all evil. He wanted to make us pure. He wanted us to be his very own people. He wanted us to desire to do what is good.

Once again you will show loving concern for us. You will completely wipe out the evil things we’ve done. You will throw all our sins into the bottom of the sea.
