Romans 6:1-11 ▼

1 What then shall we say? Shall we continue in sin, that grace might abound.

2 It may not be. We who died to sin, shall we yet live in it?

3 Or know ye not, that as many of us as were immersed in Christ Jesus, we were immersed into his death?

4 Therefore were we buried with him by immersion into death: that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, so also we should walk in newness of life.

5 For if grown together we have been in the likeness of his death, but also shall we be of the resurrection:

6 Knowing this, that our old man was crucified together, that the body of sin might be left inactive, for us no more to serve sin.

7 For he having died was justified from sin.

8 And if we died with Christ, we believe we shall also live with him:

9 Knowing that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more; death has no more power over him.

10 For he who died, died to sin once: but he who lives, lives to God.

11 So also ye reckon yourselves truly to be dead to sin, and living to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
