Bible References

He died unto

What Law could not do, in so far as our earthly nature weakened its action, God did, by sending his own Son, with a nature resembling our sinful nature, to atone for sin. He condemned sin in that earthly nature,

Him who never knew sin God made to be Sin, on our behalf; so that we, through union with him, might become the Righteousness of God.

for then Christ would have had to undergo death many times since the creation of the world. But now, once and for all, at the close of the age, he has appeared, in order to abolish sin by the sacrifice of himself.

For Christ himself died to atone for sins once for all--the good on behalf of the bad--that he might bring you to God; his body being put to death, but his spirit entering upon new Life.

He liveth unto

So let it be with you-regard yourselves as dead to sin, but as living for God, through union with Christ Jesus.

There is not one of us whose life concerns himself alone, and not one of us whose death concerns himself alone;

Now he is not God of dead men, but of living. For in his sight all are alive."

And that he died for all, so that the living should no longer live for themselves, but for him who died and rose for them.

For that was why the Good News was told to the dead also--that, after they have been judged in the body, as men are judged, they might live in the spirit, as God lives.
