The .vi. Chapter.
For as muche as we be deliuered thorow Christe
from synne: we muste fashion oure selues to lyue as
the seruauntes of God, ∧ not after oure owne lustes.
The vnlyke reward of ryghtuousnes and synne.
A What shall we saye then? Shal
we c&obar;tinue in synne, that there
maye be abounda&ubar;ce of grace?
God forbide. How shal we that
are deade as touchynge synne,
lyue any l&ebar;ger therin? &cross2; Rem&ebar;bre ye not þt; al
we which are baptised in the name of Iesus
Christe, are baptised to dye wyth hym? noteWe
are buried wyth hym by baptisme, for to dye
-- --
that lykewyse as Christe was raysed vp fr&obar;
death by the glorye of the father: euen so we
also shoulde walke in a newe lyfe. For yf
we be grafted in deathe lyke vnto hym: euen
so muste we be in the resurrection. noteThys we
muste remember, that oure olde man is crucified
wyth hym also, that þe; bodye of synne
myght vtterlye be destroyed,
B that hence
forthe we should not be serua&ubar;tes of synne.
For he that is dead is iustifyed from synne.
Wherefore yf we be deade wyth Christe, we
beleue that we shall lyue with hym: remembrynge
that Christe ones raysed from death,
dieth no more, death hath nomore power
ouer hym. For as touchynge that he dyed, he
died concernynge synne, ones. And as touchinge
that he liueth, he liueth vnto God.
Lyke wyse ymagyne ye also, that ye are05Q1430
dead concernynge synne: but are a lyue vnto
God thorowe Iesus Christe oure Lorde. &cross3;
&rhand; Lette not synne reygne therefore in youre
mortall bodyes, þt; ye shoulde thereunto obey
in the lustes of yt. Neyther geue ye youre m&ebar;bers
as instrum&ebar;tes of vnrightuousnes vnto
sinne: but geue yourselues vnto god, as they
that are aliue fr&obar; death. And geue your membres
as instrumentes of ryghtuousnes vnto
God, Let not synne haue power ouer you.
For ye are not vnder the lawe, but vnder
grace.
C &rhand; What then? Shall we synne, because we
are not vnder þe; lawe: but vnder grace? noteGod
forbyd.
&cross2; Remember ye not howe that to whomsoeuer
ye commit your selues as seruauntes
to obey, hys seruauntes ye are to whom ye
obey: whether it be of synne vnto death, or of
obedience vnto rightuousnes? God be thanked
þt; though ye were ones the seruauntes of
synne ye haue yet obeyed with herte vnto the
forme of doctrine wherunto ye were delyuered.
Ye are then made fre from sinne, ∧ are
become the seruauntes of rightuousnes. &cross3;
D &cross3; I will speake grossely because of the infirmitie
of youre fleshe. As ye haue geuen your
members seruauntes to vnclennes and to
iniquitie: from iniquitie vnto iniquitie: euen
so now geue your membres seruauntes vnto
rightuousnes, that ye may be sanctifyed. For
when ye were þe; seruauntes of synne, ye were
not vnder rightuousnes. What fruit had ye
then in those thynges, where of ye are nowe
ashamed. noteFor the ende of those thynges is
deathe. But nowe are ye deliuered fr&obar; synne,
and made the seruauntes of God, and haue
youre fruyte that ye shoulde be sanctified, ∧
the ende euerlastynge lyfe. For the rewarde
of sinne is death: but eternal lyfe is the gyfte
of God, thorow Iesus Christ oure Lorde. &cross3;
