20 When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the obligation to do right. 21 And what was the result? You are now 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. 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.
- we were free from an obligation to do right
- we are obligated to do right
- since christ paid for our sins we have become slaves to God
- now we are held to a standard to live in holiness
- what pays from sin is death, but with god we are given eternal life for free
- this is all made possible throught Christ
The one thing I think is super important is when paul says that we are obligated to do right. that we can no longer be like children and have a duty to do what is right.
