So how can we continue living in sin? 3 Did you forget that all of us became part of Christ Jesus when we were baptized? In our baptism we shared in his death. 4 So when we were baptized, we were buried with Christ and took part in his death. And just as Christ was raised from death by the wonderful power of the Father, so we can now live a new life.
There's a misunderstanding, Drich. No one wants to lead a sinful life and, say, become an investment banker or similar horrors, we're merely talking about a bit of harmless sodomy, and if we're feeling courageous, maybe mixing two kinds of thread every once in a while and eat shellfish (though I'll rather skip that)...
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
