Romans 6:19-23 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 to iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness to holiness. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death. But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit to holiness, and the end everlasting life. For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Notice the sequence. First, we receive the righteousness that comes from God. Then, we yield our members to God's righteousness. (Read more) Then, the process leads to true holiness... over time.. . from glory to glory. (Read more) The final result is total redemption, everlasting life. (Read more) And here is the same message in Paul's first letter to the Corinthian church.
1 Corinthians 1:30 It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God--that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. NIV
1 Corinthians 1:30 Wisdom explained: 1 Corinthians 1:30 Wisdom comes from God and includes righteousness, holiness, and redemption.
