Becoming like Christ in this life (6:18:39)\n * Baptism represents union with Christs death (6:114)\n * Christians are now slaves of righteousness (6:1523)\n\nPaul begins this chapter by answering how someone might hypothetically object to what he taught in Chapter 5. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-hypo]])\n\n## Special concepts in this chapter\n\n### Against the Law\n\nIn this chapter, Paul refutes the teaching that Christians can live however they want after they are saved. Scholars call this “antinomianism” or being “against the law.” To motivate godly living, Paul recalls the great price Jesus paid for a Christian to be saved. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/save]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/godly]])\n\n### Servants of sin\n\nBefore believing in Jesus, sin enslaves people. God frees Christians from serving sin.

(See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/faith]] and [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/sin]])\n\n### Fruit\n\nThis chapter uses the imagery of fruit.
