Bondage:
you shall know
the truth, and the truth shall set you free
John 8:32
Do you not know
that to whom you present yourselves to obey, you are that one’s slaves who you obey, whether of sin leading to death,
or of obedience leading to righteousness? Romans 6:16

members as slaves of righteousness for holiness

having been set
free from sin and having become slaves of God, you have your fruit to holiness and the end, everlasting life - Ro 6:22
For the wages
of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord - Ro 6:23
For the law of
the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death - Ro 8:2

l say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave to sin

For I see that
you are in the gall of bitterness and in the bondage of the iniquity - Acts 8:23 (NASB)
While they promise
them liberty, they themselves are slaves of corruption; for whom a person is overcome….by him also he is brought into
bondage - 2 Peter 2:19
this occurred
because false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that
they might bring us into bondage) - Galatians 2:4
stand fast therefore
in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage - Ga 5:1
For you, brethren
have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as a opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another -

No one
can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to one and despise the
other.
Matthew 6:24;
Luke 16:13
ADMONISHMENT
After you have
known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that your turn again to the weak and beggardly elements, to which you desire
again to be in bondage? - Ga 4:9
For if we willfully
sin after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful
expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries - Hebrews 10:26, 27
