Yes it is. What these verses are saying is this:
Now that you have been baptized in the spirit it is up to you to live your life like Christ and not to live in sin. The whole "WWJD" thing. Our sin was crucified on the cross with Jesus so that we would no longer be slaves to our sin. We have been "Freed from sin." In this we should live our lives like Christ, we should "count ourselves dead to sin and alive in God through Christ."

Yes! Not only calls a person to live in a Christ-like way, but *enables* a person to live in a Christ-like way.

Well, there's only 2 ways to act : Christ-like and un-Christ-like. What do you think ?

Yes. It is one of the great passages written by Paul. But as you read it be careful to see how he uses the words like death and resurrection.

Yes except for getting crucified for no fault on the part of the person.

Not from my experiences with Christians. The ones who are getting "born again" or becomming fanatics are the least Christ-like.
But then, apparently "true" Christians are as rare as people who don't like chocolate.

There seems to be an inordinate amount of room for interpretation in what "Christ-like" means.

No, not true: New life in Christ calls a person to live in a bigoted, dogmatic and judgmental way.
