The believer is united with Jesus in his death and resurrection. When a Christian believes in Jesus as his Messiah, his king, his representative, he leaves the Adam (sinful) way of life, in fact, he considers his Adam sinful nature nailed on the cross with Jesus and he begins to live (resurrects) to a new life where he is slave of God and no more slave of sin. That means that the believer has power from the Lord to say "no" to temptations.
