Romans 6
United in His Resurrection

Paul takes us deeper into our understanding of unity with Christ by highlighting the power of His resurrection. He writes clearly, "Since we have been united with Him in his death, we will also be raised to life as He was."

This unity isn't passive; it's transformative. Being raised to life with Christ means sin’s authority is broken. Paul underscores that because we share in Christ’s resurrection, sin is no longer our master—we are no longer slaves to our old nature. Instead, we're empowered by Christ’s resurrection power to live a life pleasing to God.

Paul paints a vivid picture: if we share in Christ’s death, our old self dies. If we share in Christ’s resurrection, we're given a new self—a self alive to God and dead to sin. The believer isn't merely improved; they're completely remade.

Our identity in Christ reshapes everything. Understanding this helps us to live free, to walk confidently in the newness of life, fully aware that the power of sin is not merely subdued but defeated.
