Sin’s Power Is Broken
6 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid (Yah / Yahuah / YHWH disallows it!). How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein (continue to live in it any longer)?
3 Know ye not (Do you not know), that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ (Yeshua / Yahushua HaMashiach) were baptized into his (His) death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him (Him) by baptism into death: that like as Christ (HaMashiach; The Anointed One) was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ (HaMashiach; The Anointed One), we believe that we shall also live with him (Him):
9 Knowing that Christ (HaMashiach; The Anointed One) being raised from the dead dieth no more (will never die again); death hath (has) no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he (He) died, he (He) died unto sin once: but in that he liveth (He lives), he liveth (He lives) unto God (Yahuah).
11 Likewise reckon ye (you) also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God (Yahuah) through Jesus Christ (Yeshua / Yahushua HaMashiach) our Lord (Master).
12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye (you) should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13 Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin (Do not go on offering members of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness): but yield (produce) yourselves unto God (Yahuah), as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God (Yahuah).
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye (you) are not under the law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid (Yahuah disallows it!).
16 Know ye (you) not, that to whom ye (you) yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye (you) are to whom ye (you) obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God (Yahuah) be thanked, that ye (you) were the servants of sin, but ye (you) have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine (teaching) which was delivered you.
18 Being then made free from sin, ye (you) became the servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye (you) have yielded (presented) your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity (sin to sin); even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye (you) were the servants of sin, ye (you) were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye (you) then in those things whereof ye (you) are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God (Yahuah), ye (you) have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God (Yahuah) is eternal life through Jesus Christ (Yeshua / Yahushua HaMashiach) our Lord (Master).
OLD TESTAMENT
Psalm 63
King James Version audio with speed control:-
(NOTE: To pause and to play again, press Fn + F5 on your keyboard)
Background music:-
A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.
63 O God (Yah / Yahuah / YHWH), thou art (You are) my God (Yahuah); early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth (thirsty) for thee (You), my flesh longeth (longs) for thee (You) in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2 To see thy (Your) power and thy (Your) glory, so as I have seen thee (You) in the sanctuary.
3 Because thy (Your) lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee (You).
4 Thus will I bless thee (You) while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy (Your) name.
5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee (You) with joyful lips:
6 When I remember thee (You) upon my bed, and meditate on thee (You) in the night watches.
7 Because thou hast (You have) been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8 My soul followeth (follows) hard after thee (You): thy (Your) right hand upholdeth (upholds) me.
9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11 But the king shall rejoice in God (Yahuah); every one that sweareth (swears) by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
Psalm 64
King James Version audio with speed control:-
(NOTE: To pause and to play again, press Fn + F5 on your keyboard)
Background music:-
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
64 Hear my voice, O God (Yah / Yahuah / YHWH), in my prayer: preserve my life from fear of the enemy.
2 Hide me from the secret counsel of the wicked; from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity (wickedness):
3 Who whet (sharpened) their tongue like a sword, and bend their bows to shoot their arrows, even bitter words:
4 That they may shoot in secret at the perfect: suddenly do they shoot at him, and fear not.
5 They encourage themselves in an evil matter: they commune of laying snares privily (traps secretly); they say, Who shall see them?
6 They search out iniquities (sins); they accomplish a diligent search: both the inward thought of every one of them, and the heart, is deep.
7 But God (Yahuah) shall shoot at them with an arrow; suddenly shall they be wounded.
8 So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.
9 And all men shall fear, and shall declare the work of God (Yahuah); for they shall wisely consider of his doing.
10 The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and shall trust in him; and all the upright in heart shall glory.
Psalm 65
King James Version audio with speed control:-
(NOTE: To pause and to play again, press Fn + F5 on your keyboard)
Background music:-
To the chief Musician, A Psalm and Song of David.
65 Praise waiteth for thee (waits for You), O God (Yah / Yahuah / YHWH), in Sion: and unto thee (You) shall the vow be performed.
2 O thou that hearest (You who hear) prayer, unto thee (to You) shall all flesh (mankind) come.
3 Iniquities (Wickedness) prevail (win) against me: as for our transgressions (sins), thou shalt purge (You shall remove) them away.
4 Blessed is the man whom thou choosest (You choose), and causest (cause) to approach unto thee (You), that he may dwell in thy (Your) courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy (Your) house, even of thy (Your) holy temple.
5 By terrible things in righteousness wilt thou (will You) answer us, O God (Yahuah) of our salvation; who art (are) the confidence of all the ends of the earth, and of them that are afar off upon the sea:
6 Which by his (His) strength setteth (sets) fast the mountains; being girded with power:
7 Which stilleth (stills) the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult (uproar) of the people.
8 They also that dwell (live) in the uttermost parts are afraid at thy tokens (Your signs [the evidence of Your presence]): thou makest (You make) the outgoings of the morning and evening to rejoice.
9 Thou visitest (You visit) the earth, and waterest (water) it: thou (You) greatly enrichest (enrich) it with the river of God (Yahuah), which is full of water: thou preparest (You prepare) them corn, when thou hast (You have) so provided for it.
10 Thou waterest the ridges (You water the watershed) thereof abundantly: thou settlest (You settle) the furrows thereof: thou makest (You make) it soft with showers: thou blessest (You bless) the springing thereof.
11 Thou crownest (You crown) the year with thy (Your) goodness; and thy (Your) paths drop fatness.
12 They drop upon the pastures of the wilderness: and the little hills rejoice on every side.
13 The pastures are clothed with flocks; the valleys also are covered over with corn; they shout for joy, they also sing.

FOOTNOTES
Gentiles (noun) meaning in the Bible
(NOTE: Gentiles (noun) = This word is the name of anyone who is not of Jewish descent or who does not believe in God; heathen, pagan)
THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE MESSIAH
The video below is done by a Jewish Hebrew language lady teacher. Her name is Ayelet. She is born and raised in Israel. Hebrew is her native language. In this video, we will be able to learn the correct pronunciation of the Messiah’s original name in Hebrew:-
VIDEO: Jesus – Yeshua in Hebrew – Hebrew Word of the Day (59 secs) – by The WORD in HEBREW
In Hebrew: מָשִׁיחַ (H4899) = Mashiach (Hebrew) = Messiah (English) / Anointed One (the Savior who saves the sinners for those who believe in Him)
FULL NAME in Hebrew text with ‘The’: יְהוֹשׁוּעַ הַמָשִׁיחַ = Yahushua Ha-Mashiach = Yahushua The Anointed One.
Christos > Χριστός (Greek) transliterated into Christ (English) which means Anointed One
NOTES:-
1. Yeshua יֵשׁוּעַ (H3442 = He will save) is a shortened form of Yehoshooah / Yahushua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = God / Yah saves). EXAMPLE #1: Mike is a shortened form of Michael. EXAMPLE #2: Josh is a shortened form of Joshua.
2. Yehoshooah as spelt in this manner depicts Joshua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = yeh-ho-SHOO-ah) adds Hosea, יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H1954 = deliver / salvation). Therefore, Yehoshooah / Yahushua means God is Salvation God / Yah saves.
3. Yahushua as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yah יה / יָהּ (H3050) as in John 5:43).
4. Yahusha as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yahuah יְהוָֹה (H3068), adds Yasha יָשַׁע (H3467 ) which means ‘Saves’. See the diagram below:-

WARNING from God (Yahuah) Himself: The Word of God (Yahuah) warned that if we do not have His word abiding (remaining) in us, then we are NOT believers (saved)! WAKE UP PEOPLE! Read John 5:38:-
John 5:38 King James Version (KJV)
And ye (you) have not his (His) word abiding in you: for whom he hath (He / Yahuah has) sent, him ye (Him you) believe not.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 King James Version (KJV)
“Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye (you) do.”
Hebrews 3:13 King James Version (KJV)
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Matthew 10:8 King James Version (KJV)
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye (you) have received, freely give.
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
That if thou shalt (you shall) confess with thy (your) mouth the Lord Jesus (Yeshua), and shalt (shall) believe in thine (your) heart that God hath (Yahuah has) raised him (Him) from the dead, thou shalt (you shall) be saved.
John 3:3 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Jesus (Yeshua) answered him, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the kingdom of God.”
