⁵ By being baptized, we have been joined with him in his death. We will certainly also be joined with him in his resurrection. ⁶ We know that what we used to be was nailed to the cross with him. That happened so our sinful bodies would lose their power. We are no longer slaves of sin. ⁷ Those who have died have been set free from sin. ⁸ We died with Christ. So we believe that we will also live with him. ⁹ We know that Christ was raised from the dead and will never die again. Death doesn't control him anymore. ¹⁰ When he died, he died once and for all time as far as sin is concerned. Now that he lives, he lives as far as God is concerned. ¹¹ In the same way, consider yourselves to be dead as far as sin is concerned. Now that you believe in Christ Jesus, consider yourselves to be alive as far as God is concerned.
