God forbid we ever choose to sin.

Rom 6:15  What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid. 

God forbid that we would ever CHOOSE to sin.  I'm NOT talking about the sinning the occurs without deliberate intention, I'm not talking about our filthy rags stained completely with sin, drenched in our wretchedness. I'm talking about the intense desire to want to hate God and hate our fellowman. If we aren't sickened by our own tendencies towards sin, then is it possible we are accepting the sin in our lives and calling it acceptable and good?

Rom 6:16  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? 
Rom 6:17  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. 
Rom 6:18  Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. 
Rom 6:19  I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness. 
Rom 6:20  For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. 
Rom 6:21  What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. 
Rom 6:22  But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. 
Rom 6:23  For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. 

Praise God for His gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ our LORD and SAVIOR now and FORVER!!!!!!!
