4 So, my brethren, you were made dead to the Law through the body of Christ, that you might become wedded to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might bear fruit to God.
5 For when we were in the flesh the sinful passions that arise through the Law were active in our members, so that we bore fruit to death.
6 But now the Law has been made inoperative on us, since we have died to that by which we were held, so that we serve in newness of the spirit and not in oldness of the letter.
