(Rom 6:1) What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may
abound?
(Rom 6:2) God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer
therein?
(Rom 6:3) Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ
were baptized into his death?
(Rom 6:4) Therefore we 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.
(Rom 6:5) For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we
shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
(Rom 6:6) 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.
(Rom 6:7) For he that is dead is freed from sin.
(Rom 6:8) Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with
him:
(Rom 6:9) Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death
hath no more dominion over him.
(Rom 6:10) For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he
liveth unto God.
(Rom 6:11) Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but
alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(Rom 6:12) Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey
it in the lusts thereof.
(Rom 6:13) 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.
(Rom 6:14) For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the
law, but under grace.
(Rom 6:15) What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under
grace? God forbid.
(Rom 6:16) Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his
servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto
righteousness?
(Rom 6:17) 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.
(Rom 6:18) Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of
righteousness.
(Rom 6:19) I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your
flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to
iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness
unto holiness.
(Rom 6:20) For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from
righteousness.
(Rom 6:21) What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed?
for the end of those things is death.
(Rom 6:22) But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have
your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life.
(Rom 6:23) For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God
is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
