Romans 6:17-18 (NASB20)
But thanks be to God that though you were slaves of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were entrusted and after being freed from sin, you became slaves to righteousness.

What truth is being put forth in these two above verses?
That the believer has been entrusted with a form of teaching, that if believed on from the heart, will set that believer free from sin and turn that believer into a slave to righteousness…
If this is the correct interpretation of these two verses, the understanding and believing this form of teaching would be most critical to one’s understanding and growth…
Though this truth is explained further in the surrounding verses it is simplified in verse 11
Romans 6:11 (NASB20)
So you too, consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus.
This is the form of teaching that if believed on from the heart, will set one free from sin…. Therefore if one is a scripture believing believer that one must believe this form of teaching if that one would be made free from sin, this being all according to scripture itself….
So it would come down to whether the believer is willing to believe this form of teaching from the heart?….
Seeing how scripture is correct and true, and there is no lie in scripture, this freedom from sin and turning one into a slave to righteousness would all lay in the understanding and believing from the heart this form of teaching that scripture itself teaches, that being, one is dead to sin and alive unto God…
For he that has died is most assuredly set free from sin, this truth, believed on from the heart will absolutely do what scripture says it will do, and that is, set the believer free from sin and turn that believer into a slave to righteousness….
Be blessed in believing from the heart that form of teaching that will turn all sinner's into slaves to righteousness…
A fellow believer, Not me
