Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

  • A 2 How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
    • B 3-4 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
      • C 5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
        • D 6a Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed,
          • E 6b that henceforth we should not serve sin.
        • D' 7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
      • C' 8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
    • B' 9-10 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
  • A' 11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
