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. (6:6) 04 For he that is dead is freed from sin (6:7) Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him: (6:8) Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him (6:9) For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God (6:10) Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord (6:11) Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof (6:12) 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. (6:13) 58 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace (6:14) What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid (6:15) Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? (6:16) But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you (6:17) Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness (6:18) I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness (6:19) For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness (6:20) What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death (6:21) But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life (6:22) For the wages of sin [is] death; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(6:23)
