Romans 6:1-14
Dead to Sin, Alive to God

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

1:

2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

2:

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

3:

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

4:

5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:

5:

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.

6:

7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.

7:

8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:

8:

9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

9:

10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.

10:

11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.

11:

12 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

12:

13 Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God.

13:

14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

14:
