Freedom

Do you know what freedom feels like? 

How many Christians actually live like they are FREE? Not bound by the law, free from the need to perform and to act by our own righteousness, not bound by sin…

“For sin shall not be master over you, for you are not under law but under grace.”

Romans 6:14

How many Christians learn about God’s grace, and Christ’s work on the cross, but then think of all the acts of righteousness they have to do to be Christian?!  We are free from the law!  Christ died so that we didn’t have to provide our own righteousness!  His righteousness is imputed on us, and the Spirit is actively working out our sanctification!

O Joy!
