    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,602 views

    Two ways of life. Two very different masters. Two pathways: one leading to death, and one leading to life. Two very different paydays.

    TWO KINDS OF SERVITUDE. Romans 6:12-23. What we are, and whose we are, shapes what we do with what we've got. Negatively, the Apostle Paul encourages us to resist any attempt that sin makes to usurp authority in our physical lives (Romans 6:12). Even for Christians, the body and its ...read more
