Romans 6:11 KJV - Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

We are to reckon it to be so that we are dead to sin through Christ.

Romans 6:13 KJV - 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.

We decide not to yield to sin knowing we have been raised from the dead and are alive in Christ.

Romans 6:14 KJV - For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

By the law was the knowledge of sin, but not the power not to yield to sin.

Romans 6:17 KJV - But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.

We are to obey what Paul has taught us by his doctrinal teachings and decide not to yield to sin, but be servants to God and righteousness.
