King James Version (KJV)

Romans 6:7

“For he that is dead is freed from sin.”

Verse in context — Romans 6

For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also [in the likeness] of [his] resurrection:

Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [him], that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

For he that is dead is freed from sin.

Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:

Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.

A deep explanation of salvation by grace through faith in Christ.
