free indeed

Saturday October 31^st, John 8: 34 Jesus replied: I tell you for certain that anyone who sins is a slave of sin! 35 And slaves don't stay in the family forever, though the Son will always remain in the family. 36 If the Son gives you freedom, you are free! Hanging onto the law, we all fall short. Putting our trust in grace, we all have the freedom to live as a child of God. Judging others is a way of invoking the law on them, and if we invoke it on them, we invoke it on ourselves. In the sermon on the mount, Jesus used the words, you have heard it said of old, but I tell you…… He then would proceed to radicalize the law, to point out how futile it is to claim that as your salvation. Those who live by the law, live by deceit and the ones most deceived are themselves. So turn to Christ and be free, be free indeed.
