Romans 6:12
Compare all
10 For the death that He died, aHe died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, bHe lives to God.  
11 Likewise you also,1 reckon yourselves to be adead indeed to sin, but balive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.  
12 aTherefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.  
13 And do not present your amembers as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but bpresent yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.  
14 For asin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.  

From Slaves of Sin to Slaves of God

15 What then? Shall we sin abecause we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!  
16 Do you not know that ato whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

Romans 6:12-14

Paul makes the same point there as he first begins to discuss sanctification as seen in Romans 12:1: we are to serve God by offering Him our bodies. Sin can control us through our bodies, but it does not need to. So rather than offering our bodies as instruments of sin, we are to offer our bodies to God as instruments for doing His will, that is, for doing good. We do good toward others which glorifies God.
