Romans 6:20

|---|---|---|
I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
|
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
|
What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things [is] death.
