Romans 6:1-10 - Dead to Sin in Romans 6

In this third chapter of my book Dead Men Rising: The Death of Sin and the Rise of Grace in Romans 6:1-14, I examine four issues: the death of Christ language, baptism, the phrase once for all, and the idea of death as master. The examination of these topics brings the reader closer to what Paul's mind when he spoke of the Christian's death to sin. The key point of this chapter is that Whatever death to sin means, it can mean nothing more or nothing less than what it meant to Christ. We died to sin only because Christ died to sin. The reader should also keep in mind that the chapters build on one another. Footnotes do not begin with "1" but are progressive from the previously published paper (chapter). Some footnotes may refer to authors and their books that are mentioned in the previous pages. I recommend that the reader read the previous chapters to gain the full context
