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 . 8Now if we be dead with Christ , we believe that we shall also live with him : 9Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more death hath no more dominion over him . 10For in that he died he died unto sin once : but in that he liveth he liveth unto God . 11Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin , but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord . 12Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body , that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof . 13Neither 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 . 14For sin shall not have dominion over you : for ye are not under the law , but under grace . 15What then ? shall we sin because we are not under the law , but under grace ? God forbid 16Know 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 ? 17But 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 18Being then made free from sin , ye became the servants of righteousness . 19I 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 . 20For when ye were the servants of sin , ye were free from righteousness . 21What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed for the end of those things [is] death . 22But now being made free from sin , and become servants to God , ye have your fruit unto holiness , and the end everlasting life . 23For the wages of sin [is] death ; but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord . (KJV)
