Amavesi eBhayibheli adumile avela kokuthi Romans 6

Dlulisela

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For sin will not rule over you, because you are not under the law  but under grace.

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.

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 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

So, you too consider yourselves dead to sin  and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

What should we say then?  Should we continue in sin so that grace may multiply?  Absolutely not!  How can we who died to sin  still live in it?

Don’t you know that if you offer yourselves to someone  as obedient slaves,  you are slaves of that one you obey   — either of sin leading to death  or of obedience leading to righteousness?

But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin,  you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching to which you were handed  over,  and having been set free from sin,  you became enslaved to righteousness.
