Romans 6:20-22

Expanded Bible

²⁰ [^LFor] When you were slaves to sin, ·goodness did not control you [^Lyou were free (from obligation) to righteousness]. ²¹ And what ·was the result of [benefit/fruit did you reap from] doing those things that now make you ashamed? [^LFor] ·Those things only bring [^LThe end/result of those things is] death. ²² But now you are free from sin and have become slaves of God. This ·brings you [reaps the benefit/fruit of] ·a life that is only for God [holiness; sanctification], and ·this gives you life forever [^Lthe end/result is eternal life].
