Romans 6:14-18

CLV(i) 14 For Sin shall not be lording it over you, for you are not under law, but under grace." 15 What then? Should we be sinning, seeing that we are not under law, but under grace? May it not be coming to that!" 16 Are you not aware that to whom you are presenting yourselves as slaves for obedience, his slaves you are, whom you are obeying, whether of Sin for death, or of Obedience for righteousness? 17 Now thanks be to God that you were slaves of Sin, yet you obey from the heart the type of teaching to which you were given over." 18 Now, being freed from Sin, you are enslaved to Righteousness."
