Easter Sunday Teaching, dead to sin alive to God:
Romans 6:4-11 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his. We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. For one who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him. For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God. So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. We identify with Christ in His crucifixion.He died as your substitute.You die to your sin.You turn from yourself.You trust in Christ as your Savior.You participate with Christ in His Resurrection.He rose as Lord over the grave.You rise to live with God.You are now free from sin. You have no fear in death.Thank You Father God for Jesus Christ. He is worthy , we are not. We are rebellious, He is not. We are sinners, He is not. We can do nothing to please You, He did everything! Amen
