12. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey the lusts thereof:

13. neither present your members unto sin as instruments of unrighteousness; but present yourselves unto God, as 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 law, but under grace. (Roman 6:12-14)

GINOLJC, let is a choice, a conditional choice which can never be made without the proper knowledge and understanding of its consequences. without knowledge of the choice, and the wisdom of God to understand the result of that choice, one will always be in bondage, which leads to destruction. the answer is in the same verses preceding, in Romans 6:3-11. consider yourself "dead" to sin, but alive to God through christ Jesus (Romans 6:11). dead men don't sin. so, consider is also a choice. after reading Romans 6:1-11, that should answer your question from 12 to 17.

Those words from Jesus , were words of freedom....... because you are not condemned of God, you are free to sin no more..... Or do you think Jesus condemns somethings and let's other things fly ?

Have you evr noticed on this forum, there are never any threads started by fundamentalists about the righteousness of God?.

You can't help but think they have no idea what it is.
