To reckon something is to really count on it. In other words, really count on the fact that you are dead to sin. He continues, “For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live” (Rom 8:13).
Katika maneno mengine, ni kujihesabu kwa jambo hili kwamba imekufa kwa dhambi. Anaendelea, “kwa maana mkiishi kwa kuufuata mwili, mtakufa,lakini kama mkiyaua matendo ya mwili Roho, mtaishi” (Waru 8:13).
