Romans 6:14-16

Expanded Bible

¹⁴ [^LFor] Sin will not ·be your master [exercise dominion/power over you], because you are not under law but under God’s grace.

Be Slaves of Righteousness

¹⁵ ·So what should we do [^LWhat then; 3:9]? Should we sin because we are under grace and not under law? ·No [Absolutely not; May it never be; v. 2]! ¹⁶ ·Surely you know [^LDon’t you know…?] that when you submit yourselves to someone as obedient slaves, ·the person you obey is your master [^Lyou are slaves to the one you obey]. [^LEither] You can ·follow [be slaves to] sin, which brings ·spiritual death [^Ldeath], or you can ·obey God [^L(be slaves) to obedience], which ·makes you right with him [leads to righteousness].
