But offer yourselves to the ways of God and the freedom never quits. All your lives you’ve let sin tell you what to do.

Then, released from the service of sin, you entered the service of righteousness. (I use an everyday illustration because human nature grasps truth more readily that way.)

So, now, give yourselves to the service of righteousness—for the purpose of becoming really good. For when you were employed by sin you owed no duty to righteousness.
