Romans 6:4-14

Romans 6:4-14 CSB

Therefore we were buried with him by baptism into death,  in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead  by the glory of the Father,  so we too may walk in newness  of life.  For if we have been united with him in the likeness of his death,  we will certainly also be  in the likeness of his resurrection. For we know that our old self  , was crucified with him  so that the body ruled by sin  might be rendered powerless  so that we may no longer be enslaved to sin, since a person who has died  is freed  from sin. Now if we died with Christ,  we believe that we will also live with him, because we know that Christ, having been raised from the dead,  will not die again. Death no longer rules over him.  For the death he died, he died to sin once for all time; but the life he lives, he lives to God. So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin  and alive to God in Christ Jesus.  Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, so that you obey  its desires. And do not offer any parts  of it to sin  as weapons for unrighteousness. But as those who are alive from the dead, offer yourselves to God,  and all the parts of yourselves to God as weapons for righteousness. For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law  but under grace.
