Chapter 6

The apostle moved on from questions about how the people saved by faith and
not by Law of Moses (1:18—3:20), what God has done to provide it, and how we
can appropriate it (3:21—5:21).

He next explained that salvation involves more than a right standing before God.
God provides salvation from the present power of sin.

This is progressive sanctification (chs. 6—8).

1:17 (Hab 2:4), 3:21-22, 3:28, 30, 31, 4:11, 13, 16, 19, 5:1, 2

When a sinner experiences redemption - he or she simultaneously experiences justification

(நியாயப் படுத்துதல் / நேறு ) . Justification imparts God's righteousness to him or her.

Justification is the same thing as "positional sanctification." This process of becoming

progressively more righteous (holy) in his or her daily experience is not automatic.

It involves growth and requires the believer to cooperate with God to produce holiness in daily
life. God leads the believer and provides the enablement for him or her to follow, but the believer
must choose to follow and make use of the resources for sanctification that God provides.

Our progressive sanctification will end at death or Christ’s 2nd coming, whichever occurs first.
Then the believer will experience glorification.

In chapters 6 - 8 Paul explained how justified sinners can become more holy (godly,
righteous) in daily living before our glorification.

We need to understand our relationship as believers :

a-> to sin (i.e., victory, ch. 6),

b-> to the Law (i.e., liberty, ch. 7),

c-> and to God (i.e., security, ch. 8)

to attain that worthy goal.

A. THE BELIEVER'S RELATIONSHIP TO SIN CH. 6

“மட்டுப்படுத்துவது Subduing the power of sin is the topic of Rom. 6.”

"The focus of his discussion, particularly in chapter 6, is not on how to obey God and avoid sinning, but on why we

should obey God. “ The apostle referred to Jesus Christ's death, burial, and resurrection in this section. These

events did not involve the believer’s participation. Jesus Christ alone endured the cross, experienced burial, and

rose from the grave. Nevertheless His work of redemption was not only substitutionary (பதிலாக) but also

representative (பிரதிநிதி / ோர்பாக). 2Cor5:14

Sin has no further claim on Christ because He paid the penalty for sin. Sin no longer has a claim on us because He

died as our representative. We are free from sin's domination because of our union with Him.

V1
Paul had just said that grace super-abounded where sin increased (5:20). Perhaps then believers should not worry
about practicing sin since it results in the manifestation of more of God's grace and His greater glory.
One expression of this is
"God will forgive; that is his 'business.’ similar sentiments.
"I like committing crimes. God likes forgiving them.

V2
"How despicable (கவறுக்கத்தக்க, இழிவான, பயனை் ை) it would be for a son or a daughter to consider himself or
herself free to sin, because he or she knew that a father or a mother would forgive.“

Paul did not say that it is impossible to live in sin or that sin is dead to the Christian.
He meant it is unnecessary and undesirable to live in sin, to habitually practice it.

V3-4 Our baptism into Jesus Christ resulted in our death to sin.
Jesus' burial was not part of His saving work. It simply proved that He had died (1 Cor. 15:3-4). Similarly His
resurrection was not part of His saving work. It proved that death could not hold Him because He was sinless
(Acts 2:24).
God not only raised Jesus Christ but also imparts new life to believers. Walking in newness of life shows that the
believer has received new life (2 Cor. 5:17).
"Glory" in verse 4 has power in view (John 11:40 - eP tpRthrpj;jhy; NjtDila kfpikiaf; fhz;gha;).
