ROMANS 6 THE PREVIOUS CHAPTERS of Romans focused mostly on the matter of salvation, but this chapter focuses on the matter of sanctification, that is, holy living after one is saved. The emphasis is not on the doctrine of salvation but on the deportment of the saved. Two main questions about grace and sinning guide the contents of this chapter. Romans 6 may be divided into two main parts as follows: A. The Increasing of Grace by Sin (Romans 6:1–13) B. The Increasing of Sin by Grace (Romans 6:14–23)
