Romans 6:1-11 ▼

1 What shall we saye then? Shall we continue in sinne, that grace maye abound? God forbyd.

2 Howe shall we that are dead to sinne, lyue any longer therin?

3 Knowe ye not, that all we whiche haue ben baptized into Iesus Christe, haue ben baptized into his death?

4 We are buryed then with him by baptisme into his death, that lykewyse as Christe was raysed vp from the dead by the glorie of the father: euen so, we also shoulde walke in newnesse of lyfe.

5 For if we be graft together by the likenesse of his death: euen so shall we be partakers of the resurrection:

6 Knowyng this, that our olde man is crucified with hym also, that the body of sinne might vtterly be destroyed, that hencefoorth we shoulde not serue sinne.

7 For he that is dead, is iustified from sinne.

8 And yf we be dead with Christe, we beleue that we shall also lyue with him:

9 Knowyng that Christe beyng raysed from the dead, dyeth no more, death hath no more power ouer hym.

10 For as touchyng that he dyed, he dyed concerning sinne once: And as touching that he lyueth, he lyueth vnto God.

11 Lykewyse, recken your selues to be dead to sinne, but alyue vnto God, thorowe Iesus Christe our Lorde.
