"We experience freedom when we choose to believe God, then act on the basis of the truth regardless of our feelings”
“I was free to choose. I learned that I could say yes to sin or no to sin, but I quickly discovered that I didn’t feel dead to sin. Many times I felt very alive to it; but the truth is based on what God says, regardless of my feelings.”
Freedom from Addiction by Neil Anderson and Mike & Julia Quarles, 142-43
"So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.
[12] Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, to make you obey its passions. [13] Do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments for righteousness. [14] For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace." (Romans 6:11-14 ESV)
