- Romans 6:4 And we which are his members rise for this end, that being made partakers of the selfsame virtue, we should begin to lead a new life, as though we were already in heaven.
- Romans 6:5 The death of sin and the life of righteousness, or our ingrafting into Christ, and growing up into one with him, cannot be separated by any means, neither in death nor life, whereby it followeth, that no man is sanctified, which lived still to sin, and therefore is no man made partaker of Christ by faith, which repenteth not, and turneth not from his wickedness: for as he said before, the Law is not subverted, but established by faith.
- Romans 6:5 Insomuch as by the means of the strength which cometh from him to us, we so die to sin as he is dead.
- Romans 6:5 For we become every day more perfect than others: for we shall never be perfectly sanctified, as long as we live here.
- Romans 6:6 All our whole nature, as we are conceived and born into this world with sin, which is called old, partly by comparing that old Adam with Christ, and partly also in respect of the deformation of our corrupt nature, which we change with a new.
- Romans 6:6 Our corrupt nature is attributed to Christ, not in deed, but by imputation.
- Romans 6:6 That naughtiness which sticketh fast in us.
- Romans 6:6 The end of sanctification which we shoot at, and shall at length come to, to wit when God shall be all in all.
