So If The Son Sets You Free, You Are Truly Free.


So
If The Son Sets You Free,
You Are Truly Free.
Scripture
John 8
36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.
Observation
Freedom always comes at a cost!
You and I because we live in the USA have a lot of freedom. And it is easy, way too easy, for us to forget the high cost that others have paid for us to enjoy the freedoms we have.
Those who serve in our military, and those who serve as “First Responders” who protect us every single day deserve our respect.
But right smack dab in the middle of all of this freedom that we enjoy in our country ... not all of us are “free”. If you and I want to be free indeed, if we want to be truly free, then we must surrender our lives to the Lord Jesus Christ.
Only by surrendering our lives to Jesus Christ and having a personal relationship with Him … that is the only way that you and I can be truly free. In a country where freedom reigns you and I can still be slaves to sin!
Have you been set free? Or are you still trying to live your life like God does not exist?
Jesus Christ died on a cross for you and He died on a cross for me. He paid a high price to set us free from the slavery of sin!
Are you free?
Application
I have been set free! How about you?
Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for the freedom that we experience in our country. It is a far from perfect place, but that is because we are a far from perfect people. Thank You for setting me free. I am no longer a slave to sin. I pray for any person that may read this blog today. Help them to acknowledge Jesus Christ as his or her Lord and Savior so that they can be set free from a life of selfish, sinful living. Open up their spiritual eyes so that they can see and understand the Truth today. “If the Son sets you free you are free indeed.”
