Rom 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
Rom 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
Rom 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
Was Paul endorsing Re-Enactment???

or was he referring to an experience in the lives of his readers that happened the moment they believed in Jesus?
did the death, burial, and resurrection become theirs the moment they first trusted in Jesus?
or was their death, burial, and resurrection stretched out into three completely separate experiences that may have happened miles apart geographically and years apart in time?
