Piper on Romans 6:11-13
If we trust in Christ, our body is like a castle with God as the reigning king; our desires are like servants in the castle; sin is a rebellious, deceptive pretender to the throne who wants to rule over the castle; the strategy of sin's sedition against the king is to take our servant-desires captive, deceive them, corrupt them, and send them as traitors into the castle like Judas to betray the king, capture one of our members (say the tongue) and turn it into a weapon against the King for unrighteousness.
From the message, Free from Sin, Slaves of Righteousness, Part 1
