Romans 6:5 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 6:5

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.
