Romans 6:8

Copyright Ó 2015 J. Neely
Romans 6:8

8 Now [de] if [ei] we be dead [apothnesko] with [sun] Christ [Christos], we believe [pisteuo] that [hoti] we shall [suzao] also [kai] live [suzao] with him [autos]:  KJV-Interlinear

8 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.   ESV

God is logical and rational, and does things in accordance with a plan. He never does things frivolously or aimlessly.

Since eternity past, when God laid out the divine decrees, His entire divine plan was established, and has never changed.

The symbolism of our dying with Christ through the symbolism of the baptism, as well as the realism of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit when we were saved, continues on with the symbolism of the resurrection, just as Christ was resurrected.

As Jesus Christ performed a work, then He performed it completely and not haphazardly.

Therefore, since we are identified with Him in His work on the cross, then we are also identified with Him in His resurrection.

Salvation is not half a work, it is a whole work.  We are identified with Christ in all that He did, not just in a portion.

And in Christ, we are not only identified with Him in His death, burial, and resurrection, we will with a certainty, be completely and totally separated from sin and death, and we will enjoy a resurrection and eternal life.





These studies, are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, that is easily accessible, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. 

To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
