Romans 6:1-7

What shall we say then? Should we remain in sin so that grace may increase? May it never be! How shall we, who died to sin, live in it any longer? Do you not know that we who were baptized into CHRIST JESUS were baptized into his death? Through baptism we were buried with him into death. CHRIST was raised from death through the glory of the Father, and in the same way - we live a new life. For if we have been united with him by sharing a death like his, so shall we also share a resurrection like his. We know, therefore, that our old sinful selves were nailed to the cross with CHRIST, so that the body of sin would become powerless, and so that we would no longer be held captive to sin. For a person who has died, has been set free from sin.
