"in the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus." - Romans 6:11
When we die all of our urges, desires, wants, and addictions die with us. This is why Paul urges us to die to sin, die to this life, and be made alive in Christ. We put off the urges and desires of sin and move forward in a new life, guided by Christ.
