Overcoming the World of SIn

Romans 6:1-7• 1What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace

may abound?

• 2God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?

• 3Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

• 4Therefore 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.

• 5For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:

• 6Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

• 7For he that is dead is freed from sin.
