Romans 6:2-15

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Romans 6:2-15

2Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?
3Or aren’ t you aware that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?
4We were therefore buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may walk in newness of life.
5For if we have been united with Him like this in His death, we will certainly also be united with Him in His resurrection.
6We know that our old self was crucified with Him so that the body of sin might be rendered powerless, that we should no longer be slaves to sin.
7For anyone who has died has been freed from sin.
8Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with Him.
9For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, He cannot die again; death no longer has dominion over Him.
10The death He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life He lives, He lives to God.
11So you too must count yourselves dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
12Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its desires.
13Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness.
14For sin shall not be your master, because you are not under law, but under grace.
15What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law, but under grace? Certainly not!
— Romans 6:2-15
