Paul’s ethical instructions are always rooted in deeper theological ideas, sometimes in the same passage.

1 Corinthians 6:20 (NIV)

2 Corinthians 7:1 (NIV)

 

In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires.

Romans 6:11-12 (NIV)

 

And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you. Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it.
