Rom. 6:2‑15• 2Let it not be. We which died to sin, how shall we live any longer in it?
 3What, know ye not that as many of us as were baptized unto Christ Jesus were baptized unto his death?
 4We were buried therefore with him by baptism unto death, that as Christ was raised out of [the] dead by the glory of the Father, so also, we should walk in newness of life.
 5For if we are become identified with the likeness of his death, so also of his resurrection shall we be,
 6knowing this, that our old man was crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be disannulled, that we should no longer serve sin.
 7For he that died hath been justified from sin.
 8Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him,
 9knowing that Christ risen out of [the] dead dieth no more: death hath no more dominion over him.
 10For in that he died, to sin he died once for all; but in that he liveth, he liveth to God.
 11So also do ye reckon yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
 12Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body to obey [it in] its lusts,
 13nor be yielding your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but yield yourselves to God as alive out of [the] dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
 14For sin shall not have dominion over you, for ye are not under law but under grace.
 15What then? Are we to sin, because we are not under law but under grace? Let it not be. (Rom. 6:2‑15)
