Believers Are Dead to Sin, Alive to God1 aWhat° shall we say° then°? Are we to bcontinue° in sin° so° that grace° may increase°? 2 aMay it never° be! How° shall we who° bdied° to sin° still° live° in it? 3 Or° do you not know° that all° of us who° have been abaptized° into bChrist° Jesus° have been baptized° into His death°? 4 Therefore° we have been aburied° with Him through° baptism° into death°, so° that as Christ° was braised° from the dead° through° the cglory° of the Father°, so° we too° might walk° in dnewness° of life°. 5 For aif° we have become° Iunited° with [Him] in the likeness° of His death°, certainly° we shall also° be II[in the likeness] of His resurrection°, 6 knowing° this°, that our aold° Iself° was bcrucified° with [Him], in order° that our cbody° of sin° might be IIdone° away° with, so that we would no° longer° be slaves° to sin°; 7 for ahe who has died° is Ifreed° from sin°.

We may not live in sin,1 ¶ Whatº shall we sayºª then?º Shall we continueºª in sin,º thatº graceº may abound?ºª for we are dead unto it,2 God forbid.ººª Howº shall we, thatº are deadºª to sin,º liveºª any longerº therein?ºº [2] Gn 39:9; Ps 119:104; Ro 3:1; 5:11; 6:5; 7:4; 2Co 5:14; Ga 2:19; 6:14; Col 3:3; 1P 1:14; 2:24; 4:1; 1Jn 3:9.
