Not Servants For Righteousness But To Righteousness

Romans 6:1 KJV
What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

Scofield's Notes gives the following three keys to the deliverance from the power of sin:
By union with Christ
Vs 1-10

By reckoning ourselves dead to sin and yielding the new life to God
Vs 11-13

By obedience to righteousness.
Vs 14-23

We are no longer servants of the law for righteousness but now being free from the law for salvation, deliverance from the power of sin in the body happens when we become servants, not to the law but to righteousness.
