All night, my mind has been quoting John 8:36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.



as if it was a song stuck in my head.  So it got me wondering why if the Son has set us free do we so often live as if we are still slaves.  I am not talking about the occasional sin but rather the idea that we sin every day, the condition of way too many local churches where people are always being hurt.  Even in communities like this where personal attacks can be common and even things that are spoken in Love are twisted into personal attacks when they aren't because we want to play victim....our sins are rampant when we should be living as those who have been set free....why? and how can we live as free people?

Great topic. I have been doing my own study on Salvation and how to understand the free gift. I will be posting another Study Thread on the subject soon. This can be a great discussion of what Christ did for us, which is beyond measure.
