This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
6:15 Now we are slaves to righteousness
15 What could that mean? That we can sin freely because we’re not under law but under grace? Not on your life! 16 Don’t you know who you are presenting yourselves to as obedient slaves? Yes, whoever you all submit to, you are their slave—either a slave of sin that leads to death, or a slave of obedience that leads to righteousness. 17 But be thankful to God that although you were all slaves to sin, your hearts submitted to what was taught, 18 and so having been freed from sin, you all were enslaved to righteousness. 19 I’m speaking from a human perspective because of your human weakness. Just as you all previously used parts of your bodies as slaves to impurity and lawlessness leading to down to further lawlessness, so now present all your body parts as slaves to righteousness leading up to holiness.
20 When you were all slaves of sin, you were immune to righteousness 21 and so what was the fruit you had back then which you are now ashamed of? The end result of that lifestyle is death. 22 But now that you’re all free from the bondage of sin and enslaved to God instead, you bear the fruit of holiness and the end result of that is living forever, 23 because the wages of sin is death, but God gives eternal life as a gift through our master Yeshua Messiah.
