Correct!
Therefore we
have been buried with Him through baptism into
death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead
through the glory of the Father,
so we too might
walk in newness of life. Romans 6:4
We are buried with Christ in baptism
so we
might walk in newness of life:
Since the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all
sin, we want to be "buried with Him through
baptism" or "baptized into His death"
(because it is in His death where His blood was
shed).
In a spiritual way...we are buried with Jesus.
When a person is old enough to sin and, as a
result of committing sin is separated from
God...that person is in need of a new life...a life
of being reconciled back to God. After believing and
repenting of sin, he or she is buried with Christ
through baptism so that he or she "might walk in
newness of life."
