Definition: For he that is dead is freed from sin.

Explanation: Okay, let’s break down Romans 6:7 – “For he who is dead is freed from sin.” It's a really powerful and important message! Here's an explanation in simpler terms: Think of it like this: “Dead” means… Our old selves. Our tendencies, our habits, the things we’ve done that aren’t serving us anymore. We're often caught up in negative patterns – things we don’t want to do, or things we used to do that now cause us pain. “Freed” means… Released from those negative patterns and burdens. It’s like a weight being lifted off your shoulders. So, what does it mean in practice? The verse says that when we die to our old selves (that’s our old habits and desires), we're no longer bound by them. We aren’t anymore the person we were before – the person who was struggling with those things. It's about a new beginning: By accepting Jesus Christ as our Savior, we’ve been “dead” to sin. We are now freed from the power of sin and its influence on our lives. We can choose to live a life that is pleasing to God and reflects His love. In short, Romans 6:7 says that when we die to our old selves, we’re free to live a new life in Christ. It's not about never doing something bad – it's about letting go of the tendency to do it, and focusing on God's love and guidance. --- Do you want me to: Explain another verse?
