Romans 6: 8-10, 48Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him.
9For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him.
10The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.
4We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
Key message
We are united in both the death and resurrection of Jesus.

Insights
- Baptism - it means both (1) to dip a thing into an element or liquid, and (2) to put an element or liquid over or on it.

- The death of Jesus has washed away our sins and has taken away the anger from God. This is why we always hear Christians say that water and the blood of Jesus cleanse us or wash away our sin.
