Having explained that we have died with Christ, and been raised together with him to new life, the Apostle Paul explores how we then should live now. The first question is: Should we go on sinning? To which he answers, "By no means!" Why not? Because we have "died to sin", it no longer has the mastery over us. With the Holy Spirit's power, we can have victory over sin. It won't be totally removed in this life, but that 'old self' is gone and buried.
