Freedom in Crisis


Verse of the Week

“Being made free from sin, you are made the servants of Righteousness.” (Romans 6:18 RGT)

July 1st – 7th
  
Scripture Reading: Matthew 28:19-20; Romans 6:18; John 8:32

Freedom in Crisis

In the beginning of this nation things were quite different, much like in the foundation of earth upon its creation.  God’s plans were clear, but sin of man changed everything.

When America was established, there wasn’t much of a gap between religious beliefs and morality.  Sadly, that can no longer be said. People need to examine what they truly believe in as righteousness or truth, and be set free from the sin that is keeping them in bondage.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
(John 8:32 NKJV)

It’s time to come back to the cross and repent.  Once more America needs to put Christ first and carry out the Great Commission in making disciples for Jesus.

“Go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.  Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”  (Matthew 28:19-20 NLT)

America is in crisis, and unless we get back on the path of righteousness, we will no longer live freely to worship God and share the gospel message of salvation. Will you stand for religious freedom like our forefathers and become a servant of Righteousness for Christ? (cw)

“Having been set free from sin, you have become the servants of Righteousness and Righteous living (of conformity to the Divine will of God in thought, purpose and action.) (Romans 6:18 AMPC emphasis mine)
