Romans 6 (“…dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus”)
In this episode, we talked about Romans 6—how grace doesn’t give us permission to sin, but freedom from it. We looked at what it means to die to our old selves, be raised to new life with Christ, and live as people set free to serve righteousness.
Romans 6
Summary: Believers are dead to sin and alive in Christ; grace isn’t an excuse to keep sinning.
Cultural Note: Baptism imagery – Jewish cleansing rituals symbolized purification; Paul ties it to dying/rising with Christ.
Fact: Baptism as burial/resurrection was a bold new identity marker.
Application: Identify areas still under sin’s control and surrender them to Christ.
Questions:
1. What does it practically mean to be “dead to sin”?
2. How does baptism symbolize a new identity?
3. Why might grace be misunderstood as permission to sin?
4. What’s one area you want to surrender more fully to God?
