'Used' in the Bible

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

and do not present your members to sin as instruments to be used for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as those who are alive from the dead and your members to God as instruments to be used for righteousness.

But thank God that, although you used to be slaves of sin, you obeyed from the heart that pattern of teaching you were transferred to,

For sin, seizing the opportunity provided by the rule, deceived me and used it to kill me.

Now, did something good bring me death? Of course not! But in order that sin might be recognized as being sin, it used something good to cause my death, so that through the rule, sin might become more exposed as being sinful than ever before.
