Romans 6:Dead to Sin, Alive in Christ pt 2

⁵ Since we have been united with him in his death, we will also be raised to life as he was. ⁶ We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives. We are no longer slaves to sin. ⁷ For when we died with Christ we were set free from the power of sin. ⁸ And since we died with Christ, we know we will also live with him. ⁹ We are sure of this because Christ was raised from the dead, and he will never die again. Death no longer has any power over him.¹⁰ When he died, he died once to break the power of sin. But now that he lives, he lives for the glory of God. ¹¹ So you also should consider yourselves to be dead to the power of sin and alive to God through Christ Jesus.(NLT)

• since we were tied with Jesus when he died, we are also tied with him when he was given life
• sin was taken and put to the cross so that sin wont hold us down
• when Jesus died we were set free
• our sins and our past lives died with him we were also born anew
• we know that sin has lost its power because Jesus overcame death(death= sin) and rose from the dead
• we should consider ourselves to be dead to sin and alive to god
• we are able to be free from sin because of the love that Jesus and God had for us.
