Romans 6

Romans 6 informs us about our being dead in sin, but alive in Christ. I believe that this means because of our being held in sin, we are ‘dead’ in sin; that is, gone and farther apart from God. However, because we believe in Christ, we are ‘alive’ in Him, which means we are triumphant over our sins and can now be close to Christ! This is amazing and assuring, and I would enjoy reading about this if I were a new believer. The reason for that is because it tells of my forgiveness and assures me of my salvation
