“The death he died he died to sin, once for all,
but the life he lives he lives to God” (Romans 6:10).

How are sin and God coordinate in this text? Died to sin. Lives to God.

Sin causes death;
God causes life.

Sin is the sting of death—gives death its eternal horror;
God is the spring of life—gives life its eternal glory.

Christ's death was infinitely effective in nullifying the miseries of sin;
Christ's life is infinitely effective in confirming the ecstasies of God.
