Is Being a Slave a Good Thing?

We usually think of a slave as a person who does not make their own decisions. But think about being a slave to righteousness. That would mean there is no choice but to be righteous.

“But God be thanked that though you were slaves of sin, yet you obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered. And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness.”  Romans 6:17,18  NKJV
