The passage from Romans 6:15-6:23 emphasizes that Christians should not continue to live in sin despite being saved by grace rather than the law. Paul teaches that being a slave to sin means that sin is one's master, not grace. The author argues that Christians should strive for holiness and righteousness, allowing themselves to be transformed inwardly and outwardly by God's grace. Leading a transformed life results in everlasting life, in contrast to serving sin that ultimately leads to death.
