5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death; we shall then, also, certainly be in the likeness of his resurrection.
6 Knowing this, that our old man has been crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that we should not any longer serve sin:
7 for he that has died is released from sin.
8 Moreover, if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him.
9 Knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies not again; death has no longer dominion over him:
10 for that he has died, he has died for sin once: but that he lives, he lives for God.
