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,  
6 knowing this, that aour old man was crucified with Him, that bthe body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.  
7 For ahe who has died has been freed from sin.  
8 Now aif we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,  
9 knowing that aChrist, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him.  
10 For the death that He died, aHe died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, bHe lives to God.  
11 Likewise you also,1 reckon yourselves to be adead indeed to sin, but balive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.  
12 aTherefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.  
13 And do not present your amembers as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but bpresent yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.
