Freedom


"But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code." ~ Romans 7:6

A lot of people think that God is about rules and regulations. They think that becoming a Christian is about being told what to do and what not to do; that God is about taking fun and enjoyment away from us.

But God’s not about that stuff at all.

Jesus said He came so that we might have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10). Moreover, He said that He came to set the captives free (Isaiah 42:6-7).

Being a Christian is not about being bound to rules and laws. It’s about being free – free from the burdens of the world, from sin, and from death.

So, celebrate your freedom today!

God bless,
J.W.
