What does it mean to be delivered from sin?

Paul concludes in Romans 7 with the affirmation that thanks be to God for Jesus Christ, through whom we receive deliverance from the body of death. This deliverance does not mean the eradication of the old nature in this life, but rather the recognition that it no longer has dominion over us. We are secured in Christ and, through the power of the Holy Spirit, enabled to resist sin, trust in His righteousness, and ultimately look forward to a new life free from sin’s influence entirely at the resurrection.
