Romans 6:16
Do you not know that if you present yourselves to anyone as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?
You can’t be devoted to two masters at once, especially when they both hate each other. God despises sin; it is, by definition, any action or intention of the heart that goes against His original design for the perfect world. It’s because of sin that the world isn’t so perfect anymore. But Jesus died to save you from the world, and from your mistakes. Christ paid the price for your wrongs, and good thing too… because in this life, you and I will never be perfect like He was. But that’s no excuse to embrace imperfection. You will always be a slave to the master that you serve: either your own filth which ends in death, or the One who died to give you life.
