Freedom isn’t free, it costs somebody something! – Jay O’Dell
Galatians 5:1, Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
Americans have certain unalienable rights; life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These rights didn’t come without a cost. For over 240 years, men and women have given their lives so that Americans can enjoy these freedoms. Beginning at the Battles of Lexington and Concord until modern day wars of Iraq and Afghanistan, we see lives that have fallen so men and women can be free!
Christians have been set free as well. We have been set free from our sin and shame because Jesus gave His life so we can be free! Over 2,000 years ago Jesus laid down His life, got up on a tree, and gave His life so that all could come to repentance. He gave His life so you and I could be saved! He gave His life so we could be free!
Are you free? Have you been set free from your sin and shame? If not, you can be! GET UP, GET READY , and GO TO CHURCH with this verse on your mind: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” Romans 10:9
