A Tale of Two Masters

Nov 3, 2024    Pastor Matt Keller

In Romans 6, Paul presents a stark choice: serve sin or serve righteousness. Sin, though enticing, leads to impurity, lawlessness, and ultimately death. It promises satisfaction but leaves you enslaved and unsatisfied. Conversely, serving God leads to sanctification, spiritual maturity, and eternal life. Paul stresses that obedience reveals your true master. The Roman believers were commended for their heartfelt obedience to God's teachings, not as a means to earn salvation, but as a response to God's grace. As you stand at this crossroads, consider whom you will serve. Reflect on your life and choose to present your body as a slave to righteousness, experiencing the true freedom and eternal life that comes from serving God.
