1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound?
2 No, in no wise. How shall we that are dead to sin live any longer therein?
3 Know ye not that all of us that are baptized into Jesus the Christ are baptized into his death?
4 For we are buried with him by baptism into death, that just as the Christ was raised up from the dead to the glory of the Father, likewise we also walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in him 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 we should not serve sin any longer.
