Romans 6
|
|
| 6:1
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? |
|
| 6:2
God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? |
|
| 6:3
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were
baptized into his death? |
|
| 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. |
|
| 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: |
|
| 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. |
|
| 6:7
For he that is dead is freed from sin. |
|
| 6:8
Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with
him: |
|
| 6:9
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath
no more dominion over him. |
|
| 6:10
For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he
liveth unto God. |
|
| 6:11
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive
unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. |
|
| 6:12
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in
the lusts thereof. |
|
| 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. |
|
| 6:14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under
the law, but under grace. |
"Ye are not under the law, but under grace."
Must Christians obey Old Testament laws?
|
| 6:15
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under
grace? God forbid. |
|
| 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? |
|
| 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. |
|
| 6:18
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness. |
|
| 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. |
|
| 6:20
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness. |
|
| 6:21
What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the
end of those things is death. |
"The end of those things is death."
Does hell exist?
|
| 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. |
|
| 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
|
"The wages of sin is death."
Does hell exist?
