Romans 6:16 (NAS)
Do you not know that when you present yourselves to someone as slaves for obedience, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin resulting in death, or of obedience resulting in righteousness?
Romans 6:16 (Philips)
Just think what it would mean. You belong to the power which you choose to obey, whether you choose sin, whose reward is death, or God, obedience to whom means the reward of righteousness.
Romans 6:16 (NLT)
Don’t you realize that whatever you choose to obey becomes your master? You can choose sin, which leads to death, or you can choose to obey God and receive his approval.
Even after you choose Yeshua as your Messiah and Lord, He gives you the choice every day to serve and obey Him. You can put yourself at His disposal or you can choose to serve your old sinful nature. However, when you committed your life to Jesus, you voluntarily became His bond servant and permanently subjected yourself to Him as your Master.
Therefore, every day you should submit to and comply with Adonai's will. Listen and hearken to His voice. Attend to His commands. Do not submit yourself again to sin. You no longer have a share in the kingdom of darkness, which only leads to death
Do not wander from the path of uprightness and honor, which is your lot and destiny, by violating God's law. Always give your ear to the teaching of Adonai's word. Make it a point to learn, understand, and comprehend all that He says. He has made you acceptable to Himself. He approves of you; therefore, live your life with integrity, virtue, and honor.
