On the Road to Jerusalem

Present Sufferings, Future Glory

We share in Christ’s Death and New Life
What then are we to say? Should we continue in sin in order that grace may abound? 2By no means! How can we who died to sin go on living in it? 3Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we have been buried withContinue reading “We share in Christ’s Death and New Life”
