2 Heaven forbid! How can we, who have died to sin, still live in it?

3 Don’t you know that those of us who have been immersed into the Messiah Yeshua have been immersed into his death?

4 Through immersion into his death we were buried with him; so that just as, through the glory of the Father, the Messiah was raised from the dead, likewise we too might live a new life.
