* What shall we say then ? Shall we continue in sin , that grace may abound ? * God forbid . How shall we , that are dead to sin , live any longer therein ? * Know ye not , that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death ? * Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death : that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father , even so we also should walk in newness of life . * For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death , we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection : * Knowing this , that our old man is crucified with him , that the body of sin might be destroyed , that henceforth we should not serve sin . * For he that is dead is freed from sin . * Now if we be dead with Christ , we believe that we shall also live with him : * Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more ; death hath no more dominion over him . * For in that he died , he died unto sin once : but in that he liveth , he liveth unto God . * Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin , but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord . * Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body , that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof . * Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin : but yield yourselves unto God , as those that are alive from the dead , and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God . * For sin shall not have dominion over you : for ye are not under the law , but under grace .
