Romans 7:6
But now we are delivered from the law. By death. Having died in
Christ (Romans 6:2-4), we are released from the dominion of the law.
See Romans 7:1.
That we should serve in newness of spirit. This service of
Christ is the new service of those living new lives. It is a spiritual
service: "God must be worshiped in spirit and truth" (John 4:24).
God's law under the new covenant is "written in the hearts"
(Hebrews 8:10); hence it is not a bondage, but a free, willing service.
