Grace For Your Day 9-26-11
John 8:36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.
Freedom, doesn't that word sound good.? Freedom is a wonderful thing, but it also comes with a great price. Many people have died down through the years in an effort to gain freedom. Wars have been waged in the name of freedom.....that's how much it is desired. Now you may never have to fight for the freedom of this great country, but there is a good chance that you have fought for freedom on a personal level many times over. You see, we were born imprisoned, bound by sin. Now there comes a time in your life when you realize that you are bound to your sinful desires, and you try to change, you fight for your freedom. The truth is, that you can't fight your way to freedom, but you can be free! The Bible tells us that Jesus Christ went head to head against the sin that bound us, and He won, but it didn't look like He won. It looked like He lost because He died, but His death was s substitutionary death. His death was the death intended for me, and it brought me life.....His life.......FREEDOM. Now I don't always feel free, or look free, but I am free none the less. I am free indeed, and so are you child of God. Amen.
