Romans 6:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 6:2

Dead to Sin, Alive to God

1 What shall we say then? ^aShall we continue in sin that grace may abound?

2 Certainly not! How shall we who ^adied to sin live any longer in it?

3 Or do you not know that ^aas many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus ^bwere baptized into His death?

4 Therefore we were ^aburied with Him through baptism into death, that ^bjust as Christ was raised from the dead by ^cthe glory of the Father, ^deven so we also should walk in newness of life.

5 ^aFor if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,
