4. New Attitudes

7. A New desire for holiness
What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? […] just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
(Rom 6:1-4).
