Have freedom in The Lord
Slave, owned by a master. You are a slave to whomever's will you are doing.
You obeyed from the heart. It was an internal recognition of the truth so we obeyed. And became a slave to righteousness.
"Set free" legal term that got the Romans attention.
Flesh is everything you are apart from Christ.
