Romans 6:9-12

AUV(i) 9 We know that Christ was raised from the dead, never to die again, because death does not have control over Him any longer. 10 For [in] the death He experienced, He died to sin [i.e., to remove sin] once for all. But the life that He [now] lives, He lives [fully] for God. 11 So, you [too] should consider yourselves dead to sin [i.e., no longer under its power], but [spiritually] alive to God, in [fellowship with] Christ. 12 So, do not allow [the practice of] sin to rule your mortal bodies, so that you obey its desires.
