6WHAT SHALL we say [to all this]? Are we to remain in sin in order that God's grace (favor and mercy) may multiply {and} overflow?G5101G2046G3767G1961G266G2443G5485G4121 2Certainly not! How can we who died to sin live in it any longer?G3361G1096G4459G3748G599G266G2198G2089G1722G846 3Are you ignorant of the fact that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?G2228G50G3754G3745G907G1519G2424G5547G907G1519G846G2288 4We were buried therefore with Him by the baptism into death, so that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious [power] of the Father, so we too might [habitually] live {and} behave in newness of life.G3767G4916G846G1223G908G1519G2288G2443G5618G5547G1453G1537G3498G1223G1391G3962G3779G2249G2532G4043G1722G2538G2222 5For if we have become one with Him by sharing a death like His, we shall also be [one with Him in sharing] His resurrection [by a new life lived for God].G1063G1487G1096G4854G3667G846G2288G2071G235G2532G386 6We know that our old (unrenewed) self was nailed to the cross with Him in order that [our] body [which is the instrument] of sin might be made ineffective {and} inactive for evil, that we might no longer be the slaves of sin.G1097G5124G3754G2257G3820G444G4957G2443G4983G266G2673G3371G2248G1398G3371G1398G266 7For when a man dies, he is freed (loosed, delivered) from [the power of] sin [among men].G1063G599G1344G575G266 8Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,G1161G1487G599G4862G5547G4100G3754G4800G2532G4800G846 9Because we know that Christ (the Anointed One), being once raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has power over Him.G1492G3754G5547G1453G1537G3498G599G3765G2288G2961G3765G2961G846 10For by the death He died, He died to sin [ending His relation to it] once for all; and the life that He lives, He is living to God [in unbroken fellowship with Him].G3739G1063G599G599G266G2178G1161G3739G2198G2198G2316 11Even so consider yourselves also dead to sin {and} your relation to it broken, but alive to God [living in unbroken fellowship with Him] in Christ Jesus.G3779G3049G5210G2532G1438G1511G3498G3303G266G1161G2198G2316G1722G2424G5547G2257G2962 12Let not sin therefore rule as king in your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies, to make you yield to its cravings {and} be subject to its lusts {and} evil passions.G936G3361G266G3767G936G1722G5216G2349G4983G1519G5219G846G1722G1939G846 13Do not continue offering or yielding your bodily members [and faculties] to sin as instruments (tools) of wickedness. But offer {and} yield yourselves to God as though you have been raised from the dead to [perpetual] life, and your bodily members [and faculties] to God, presenting them as implements of righteousness.G3366G3936G5216G3196G3696G93G266G235G3936G1438G2316G5613G2198G1537G3498G2532G5216G3196G3696G1343G2316 14For sin shall not [any longer] exert dominion over you, since now you are not under Law [as slaves], but under grace [as subjects of God's favor and mercy].G1063G266G2961G3756G2961G5216G1063G2075G3756G5259G3551G235G5259G5485 15What then [are we to conclude]? Shall we sin because we live not under Law but under God's favor {and} mercy? Certainly not!G5101G3767G264G3754G2070G3756G5259G3551G235G5259G5485G3361G1096 16Do you not know that if you continually surrender yourselves to anyone to do his will, you are the slaves of him whom you obey, whether that be to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience which leads to righteousness (right doing and right standing with God)?G1492G3756G3754G3739G3936G1438G1401G1519G5218G1401G2075G3739G5219G2273G266G1519G2288G2228G5218G1519G1343 17But thank God, though you were once slaves of sin, you have become obedient with all your heart to the standard of teaching in which you were instructed {and} to which you were committed.G1161G2316G5485G3754G2258G1401G266G1161G5219G1537G2588G5179G1322G1519G3739G3860 18And having been set free from sin, you have become the servants of righteousness (of conformity to the divine will in thought, purpose, and action).G1659G1161G1659G575G266G1402G1343 19I am speaking in familiar human terms because of your natural limitations. For as you yielded your bodily members [and faculties] as servants to impurity and ever increasing lawlessness, so now yield your bodily members [and faculties] once for all as servants to righteousness (right being and doing) [which leads] to sanctification.G3004G442G1223G769G5216G4561G1063G5618G3936G5216G3196G1401G167G2532G458G1519G458G3779G3568G3936G5216G3196G1401G1343G1519G38 20For when you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness.G1063G3753G2258G1401G266G2258G1658G1343 21But then what benefit (return) did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? [None] for the end of those things is death.G5101G3767G2590G2192G5119G1909G3739G1870G3568G1870G1063G5056G1565G2288 22But now since you have been set free from sin and have become the slaves of God, you have your present reward in holiness and its end is eternal life.G1161G3570G1659G575G266G1161G1402G2316G2192G5216G2590G1519G38G1161G5056G166G2222 23For the wages which sin pays is death, but the [bountiful] free gift of God is eternal life through (in union with) Jesus Christ our Lord.G1063G3800G266G2288G1161G5486G2316G166G2222G1722G2424G5547G2257G2962
