2 May it not happen! How will we who died to sin, still live in it?
3 Or are ye ignorant that as many as were immersed into Christ Jesus were immersed into his death?
4 We were buried therefore with him through the immersion into death, so that as Christ was raised up from the dead through the glory of the Father, so also we may walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have become co-planted in the likeness of his death, then we will also be of the resurrection.
6 Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, so that the body of sin might be inactivated, no longer to enslave us to sin.
7 For he who has died has been made righteous away from sin.
