17But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to sin, you wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching to which you were entrusted.

Interesting how he modifies the word slave with both righteousness and sin. It is easy for us to see someone who is a slave to sin. Look at any of us. He gives us a horride word picture, one of slavery, as a way to see us. Then he takes that level of emotion and makes us realize how much we should seek righteousness. If we feel imprisoned by sin, we can, with our freedom, choose to be that way with doing what is right. (which begs the question - what is right? ;)
