²² For the one who was called in the Lord as a slave, is ^(A)the Lord’s freed person; likewise the one who was called as free, is ^(B)Christ’s slave.

Follow the Spirit

5 ^(A)It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore ^(B)keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a ^(C)yoke of slavery.

¹⁶ Act as ^(A)free people, and ^[a]do not use your freedom as a ^[b]covering for evil, but use it as ^(B)bond-servants of God.
