“For by dying, he is dead to sin once and for all, and now the life that he lives is a life with God. In the same way, you must see yourselves as being dead to sin but alive for God in Christ Jesus.’’ Romans 6:10-11
Every baptised Christian is baptised unto the death of Jesus Christ. Jesus died to this world, but rose again to an indestructible life. By their baptism into the death of Christ, every Christian too, is called to die to this world - which means to all the passions and pleasures that the world has to offer, and to live for God. Knowing this truth, let us immerse ourselves more deeply into the mystery of our baptism unto Christ’s death. If we die with Him, we shall indeed rise with Him into a new life, a life ruled not by human passions, but by the grace of God.
