1. Just as Christ was raised from the dead, we too might walk in newness of life (friends, this is the importance of the act of baptism - be totally submersed in water (getting rid of our "old man" and then coming up out of the water (becoming totally new).
2. Our old self was crucified with Him.
3. One who has died has been set free from sin.

Call to Action - Friends, why do you try to live a righteous life - is it to earn God's favor? If so, you are missing the point. It is not anything that we do, but ONLY what Jesus Himself did on the cross (for) us that we gain favor (and grace) from God.
