Shall we go on sinning so

that grace may increase?

By no means! We died to

sin; how can we live in it

any longer?

Or don’t you know that all

of us who were baptized into

Christ Jesus were baptized into

His death? 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.

If we have been united with Him like

this in His death, we will certainly also

be united with Him in His resurrection.

For we know that our old self was crucified

with Him so that the body of sin might be

done away with, that we should no longer

be slaves to sin- because anyone who has

died has been freed from sin.

Now if we died with Christ, we believe that

we will also live with Him.

For we know that sine Christ was raised

from the dead, He cannot die again;

death no longer has mastery over Him.

The death He died, He died to sin once

for all; but the life He lives, He lives to

God.

In the same way, count yourselves dead

to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus.

Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal

body so that you obey its evil desires.

Do not offer the parts of your bodies to sin,

as instruments of wickedness, but rather

offer yourselves to God, as those who have

been brought from death to life; and offer

the parts of your body as instruments of

righteousness. For sin shall not be your

master, because you are not under law,

but under grace.

(Romans 6.1-14).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

resurrection and the fellowship of sharing

in His sufferings, becoming like Him in His

death, and so, somehow, to attain to the

resurrection from the dead.

(Philippians 3. 10 & 11).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that

grace may increase? By no means! We died to sin. How

can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all

of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized

into His death? 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.

If we have been united with Him like this in His death,

we will certainly be united with Him in His resurrection.

For we know that our old self was crucified with Him so

that the body of sin might be done away with, that we

should no longer be slaves to sin – because anyone who

has died has been freed from sin.

also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ will all be made alive.

But each in his own turn: Christ, the firstfruits; then, when He comes, those

who belong to Him. Then the end will come, when He hands over the kingdom

to God the Father after He has destroyed all dominion, authority and power.

For He must reign until He has put all His enemies under His feet. The last

enemy to be destroyed is death. For He has put everything under His feet.

Now when it says that “everything” has been put under Him, it is clear that

this does not include God Himself, Who put everything under Christ. When

He has done this, then the Son Himself will be made subject to Him Who put

everything under Him, so that God may be all in all.

(I. Corinthians 15. 21-28).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been

raised. And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and

so is your faith. More than that, we have been found to be false witnesses

about God, for we have testified that about God that He has raised Christ

from the dead. But He did not raise Him if in fact the dead are not raised.

For if the dead are not raised, then Christ has not been raised either.

And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your

sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ are lost. If only fro

this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men.

(I. Corinthians 15.12-18).

resurrection from the dead, aim at the rich eternal treasures above,

where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

And set your minds and keep them set on the higher things above,

not on the earthly things.

For as far as this world is concerned, you have died and your new

real life is hidden with Christ in God.

(Colossians 3.1-3).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

By His boundless mercy we have been born again to an

ever-living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ

from the dead.

that I may progressively become more deeply and

intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving, recognizing

and understanding the wonders of His Person more

strongly and clearly, and that I may in that same way

come to know the power of His resurrection and that I

may so share His sufferings as to be continually transformed

in spirit into His likeness even to His death, in the hope

That if possible I may attain to the resurrection that lifts me

out from among the dead.

Not that I have now attained this ideal, or have already been

made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of and make my own,

that for which Christ Jesus has laid hold of me and made me

His own.

(Philippians 3.10-12).

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

(to a new life with Him and sharing in His

resurrection), aim at the rich and eternal

treasures that are above, where Christ is

seated at the right hand of God. (Ps.110.1).

And set your minds and keep them set on

what is above, not on things of the earth.

For as far as this world is concerned, you

have died, and your life is hid with Christ

in God.

When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then

you also will appear with Him in glory.”

(Colossians 3.1-4).

for significance and expressed a calling upon God, especially in

times of stress. Anyone who ponders the specter of death also

wonders about life beyond death and the awareness of even

resurrection.

The reason men, women and children call upon God is because He

has placed a desire deep in us for Him. He desires us. We are His

masterpiece.

We call on Him because He has already answered us before we call.

He has heard us before we were fashioned. He has provided rest for

our sighing, peace in our weariness and comfort as we cry.

He is the Master of Life and Resurrection. In fact Jesus Christ IS THE

RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. The answer to our question and the

goal of our quest.
