20 [a](A)The Law came in so that the offense would increase; but where sin increased, (B)grace abounded all the more, 21 so that, as (C)sin reigned in death, so also (D)grace would reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Believers Are Dead to Sin, Alive to God

(E)What shall we say then? Are we to (F)continue in sin so that grace may increase? [b](G)Far from it! How shall we who (H)died to sin still live in it? Or do you not know that all of us who have been (I)baptized into (J)Christ Jesus have been baptized into His death?
