Buried with Christ
Romans 6:4-5
If you read the letter of Romans in one sitting, what does it teach about how the first Christians became Christian?
In Romans 10:13, Paul writes to those who are already Christian. He says, “Whoever will call upon the name of the Lord will be saved.”
What do you think Paul meant? Is that what these Christians had done?
In Romans 6, Paul ties conversion and sanctification together as he writes about being “buried with Christ.” He explains the new relationship God initiates at conversion. He also emphasizes what this means for how Christians live moving forward.
