Freedom and Obedience...
Freedom in Christ is a tremendous blessing but it's not something that we should ever take for granted or misuse.
_
True freedom is found in and through salvation in Christ...
_
True freedom is found as He transforms us day-by-day into a more useful vessel to live and serve for His Kingdom and Glory...
_
True and abiding in and living in accordance to The Word of God...
_
As a result of this and more, freedom should result in a deeper love of and service to The Lord and those He's placed in your lives in and out of The Body of Christ.
_
Freedom in Christ was never meant to live out in only a self serving way.
_
Let me remind you that If you find yourself or other believers living however they want including stepping into sin, while having the attitude that "it's OK, Jesus will forgive me"...we/you have a problem! If we have this attitude, true repentance is in order right now!
_
Jesus didn't take up the cross for us giving us salvation so we can be saved and then act and live like we are not saved!
_
What a waste of His gift to live on in a sinful life and act like we are not new creations in Christ whom He has transformed from death to life!
_
Let's remember and may it keep us sober knowing that our freedom cost God The Father and Jesus The Son everything so... don't ever live like this! Take His finished work on the cross and sin seriously!
_
May we always use our freedom in Christ for His kingdom and glory and for the good of other people whom He's called us to serve and not just for our own self service or sometimes wrong desires.
