Sermon: Romans 6:1-14; "Dead Men Can't Be Charged"
Date: November 30, 2014
Pastor: Michael Howard
Scripture: Romans 6:1-14
1 What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace
may increase?
2 By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live
in it any longer?
3 Or dont you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ
Jesus were baptized into his death?
4 We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in
order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the
glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
5 For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will
certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his.
6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the
body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no
longer be slaves to sin
7 because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.
8 Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live
with him.
9 For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot
die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
10 The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he
lives, he lives to God.
11 In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God
in Christ Jesus.
12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you
obey its evil desires.
13 Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of
wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have
been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself
to him as an instrument of righteousness.
14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under
the law, but under grace.
