The Good News That Changes Everything.
Romans 6:1-13
Well then, should we keep on sinning so that God can show
us more and more of his wonderful grace? 2 Of course not!
Since we have died to sin, how can we continue to live in it?
3 Or have you forgotten that when we were joined with Christ
Jesus in baptism, we joined him in his death? 4 For we died
and were buried with Christ by baptism. And just as Christ
was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the
Father, now we also may live new lives.
5 Since we have been united with him in his death, we will
also be raised to life as he was. 6 We know that our old sinful
selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its
power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. 7 For when
we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin.
8 And since we died with Christ, we know we will also live
with him. 9 We are sure of this because Christ was raised
from the dead, and he will never die again. Death no longer
has any power over him. 10 When he died, he died once to
break the power of sin. But now that he lives, he lives for the
glory of God. 11 So you also should consider yourselves to
be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ
Jesus. 12 Do not let sin control the way you live;* do not give
in to sinful desires. 13 Do not let any part of your body
become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give
yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now
you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument
to do what is right for the glory of God.
