1 Do we then conclude thus, let us continue in sin, that the divine favour may be more fully display'd? 2 God forbid, that we who have died to sin should live any longer therein. 3 don't you know that when we were all baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, we were plunged into a state figurative of his death. 4 therefore we are buried with him by being plunged into a sort of death: that as Christ was raised up from the dead into a state of glory with the father, even so we also should proceed to a new state of life. 5 for if we resembled him with regard to death, certainly we shall likewise do so with regard to his resurrection: 6 considering this, that our vicious passions were crucified with him, that the body of sin being destroyed, we might not any longer be vassals to sin. 7 for by its being dead, we are set free from sin.
