Romans 6: 1 What shall we say then?Shall
we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God
forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any
longer therein?
3 Know ye not, that so many of us
as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Thereforewe
are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised
up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk
in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together
in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man
is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth
we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from
sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ,
we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised
from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he died, he died unto
sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11 Likewise reckon
ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through
Jesus Christ our Lord.
12 Let
not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in
the lusts thereof.
13 Neither
yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield
yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members
as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14
For sin shall not have dominion over you:
for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15 What then? shall we sin, because
we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16 Know ye not, that towhom
ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey;
whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17 But God be thanked, that ye were
the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine
which was delivered you.
18 Being
then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19 I speak after the manner of men
because of the infirmity of your flesh: foras
ye have yieldedyour members servants
to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield
your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20 For when ye were the servants
of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21 What fruit had ye then in those
things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22 But nowbeing
made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto
holiness, and the end everlasting life.
23 For the wages
of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ
our Lord.
