5 For if we have grown into union with him by the likeness of his death, surely we shall be united with him by the likeness of his resurrection.
6 For we know this, that our old-time humanity was crucified with him, in order that the sinful body might be made powerless, that we might no longer be slaves of sin.
7 For one who has died has been pronounced righteous and free from sin.
8 But if we died with Christ we believe that we shall live with him,
9 knowing that Christ, after being raised from the dead, dies no more; death no more reigns over him.
10 For the death that he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life that he lives, he lives to God.
