Romans 6:20

← Romans 6:19	Romans 6:20 (KJV)	Romans 6:21 →
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.
