When I first got saved while at college, a fellow student replied to me when I told him of my commitment to Christ "I don't want anyone to be my master". Afterward I thought about it and it came to me. He was already a slave to sin! Yes, you do have to serve somebody and there boils down two choices God or satan. The reason is man was born in sin when Adam sin death and sin reigned upon all mankind. It is only by accepting Christ can we be made free from sin. I bought Dylan's two albums "Slow Train Coming" and "Saved" and wish I had them now. I got to go to one of his concerts during that time and was broken hearted when he reneged. I feel he must have had his heart hurt badly by someone. To turn from a religious belief is one thing but to turn from the source of all light and love is another. When many left Jesus at some hard sayings He turned to His disciples and said "will you also go away?" to which
Simon Peter answered him, "Lord, to whom shall we go? only you have the words of eternal life". It is from Him wounds are healed and people are made alive, turn from Him? No thank you.
RayMan you got it right bro!
