Romans 6:1-11
1What will we say then? Will we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2Certainly not! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?
3Or don`t you know that all we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death?
4We were buried therefore with him through baptism to death, that just like Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we also might walk in newness of life.
5For if we have become united with him in the likeness of his death, we will also be part of his resurrection;
6knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.
7For he who has died has been freed from sin.
8But if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him;
9knowing that Christ, being raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no more has dominion over him!
10For the death that he died, he died to sin once; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
11Thus also consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
