Romans 6 : 5 - 11
Chapter 6
5 | For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,
|
6 | knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.
|
7 | For he who has died has been freed from sin.
|
8 | Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,
|
9 | knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him.
|
10 | For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.
|
11 | Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
|
The grace of God the Father be with you all.
Amen.
