Freedom in Christ

Good morning everyone!! I trust this will be a glorious day for you!! Let go-let God!! Let's praise God and continue on as a good, honorable example of Christianity.

1 Peter 2:15-16 "It is God's will that your honorable lives should silence those ignorant people who make foolish accusations against you. For you are free, yet you are God's slaves, so don't use your freedom as an excuse to do evil."

Verse 15 our honorable lives should silence those ignorant people. This talks about our lives, not our words. You can never match wits with an idiot, they always believe they win. But you life can be exemplary - they can't beat that down.

Verse 16 Christians have freedom in Christ, but the apostles defined freedom more narrowly than the normal use of the word in common language. Christians use freedom as a tool for a life of exuberant service. It is the foundation that God gives to us to reach our highest potential.

Because God gives us freedom from religious rules and eternal guilt, we must not seek to indulge our own desires. We should reach for the best God has for us. Let us be free in God - and our example above reproach. So, how are you living? As God request? Thank you for reading with me today. Love you all.

In Christ's Love and Grace
