12   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. ~ ROMANS 6:12-14

What happens to us when we are truly born again? We go from being a time being to an eternal being. That means we step into a dimension of grace, versus a dimension of this sinful age around us. There are two dimensions, grace and sin. When you are born again, your instruments, your hands, your tongues, have become instruments of righteousness, working out of an eternal grace Headship. How can we yield them to an unrighteous dimension if we are no longer living under that former headship?
