Set Free from Sin

15What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? May it never be! 16Do you not know that to whomever you present yourselves as slaves for obedience, you are slaves to whomever you obey, whether sin, leading to death, or obedience, leading to righteousness? 17But thanks be to God that you were slaves of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart the pattern of teaching to which you were entrusted, 18and having been set free from sin, you became enslaved to righteousness. 19(I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh.) For just as you presented your members as slaves to immorality and lawlessness, leading to lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness, leading to sanctification. 20For when you were slaves of sin, you were free with respect to righteousness.

21Therefore what sort of fruit did you have then, about which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things is death. 22But now, having been set free from sin and having been enslaved to God, you have your fruit leading to sanctification, and its end is eternal life.
