17 But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart (A)that form of doctrine to which you were [a]delivered. 18 And (B)having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness. 19 I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness [b]for holiness.
20 For when you were (C)slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. 21 (D)What fruit did you have then in the things of which you are now ashamed? For (E)the end of those things is death. 22 But now (F)having been set free from sin, and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit [c]to holiness, and the end, everlasting life.

19 I am using an example from everyday life(F) because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness(G) leading to holiness. 20 When you were slaves to sin,(H) you were free from the control of righteousness.(I) 21 What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death!(J) 22 But now that you have been set free from sin(K) and have become slaves of God,(L) the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life.(M)
