What does it mean to abide in His death?

Answered in 1 source

To abide in His death means to share in Christ's redemptive sacrifice, securing the believer's own death and resurrection.

Romans 6:3 teaches that all who are baptized into Christ are baptized into His death, signifying that believers partake in the significance of His sacrificial death. This shared experience means that their old selves are crucified with Him, thus assuring them that they are united to Him not only in death but also in newness of life. By abiding in His death, Christians can live confidently, knowing that their past sins are dealt with and that they have eternal life through Him.
