But have you discovered, like me, that's the way life is? There's option a and option b. There's the easy way, God's way, grace way, Holy Spirit way. And then there is option B.

Paul is trying to argue, when he responds to this stupid hypothetical question; "Since I'm forgiven because of grace, can I just sin every now and then?" He says, "well I guess you could, but don't you realize that when you do that you are setting yourself up to become a slave of whatever it is that you commit yourself to? And since you've been freed from since and become a slave of righteousness, why don't you present yourself to righteousness. Why don't you offer yourself fully, unconditionally to Jesus Christ? Why don't you go for all the gusto that you have in Jesus? Because the more you surrender to Christ, the more you become like Christ.
