Romans 6:17-18; Romans 6:20-22 (New Living Translation)
17
Thank God! Once you were slaves of sin, but now you have obeyed with all your heart the new teaching God has given you.
18
Now you are free from sin, your old master, and you have become slaves to your new master, righteousness.
20
In those days, when you were slaves of sin, you weren't concerned with doing what was right.
21
And what was the result? It was not good, since now you are ashamed of the things you used to do, things that end in eternal doom.
22
But now you are free from the power of sin and have become slaves of God. Now you do those things that lead to holiness and result in eternal life.
