1 ) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
-
2 ) God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
-
3 ) Know all of you not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
-
4 ) Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
-
5 ) For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
-
6 ) Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
-
7 ) For he that is dead is freed from sin.
-
8 ) Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
-
9 ) Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more, death has no more dominion over him.
-
10 ) For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he lives, he lives unto God.
-
11 ) Likewise reckon all of you also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
