Context: Romans 6
8Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
12Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.

Commentary
Romans 6 is a powerful chapter that speaks to the power of grace and the freedom that comes from being in Christ. Paul begins by reminding the readers that they have been baptized into Christ and have been united with Him in His death. This means that they have died to their old sinful nature and have been raised to a new life in Christ. This new life is one of freedom from sin and death, and it is a life of holiness and righteousness.
