Free? Really? How free are you without Sacraments?
Show me where Jesus taught that being subject to sacraments or any other religious duty was *freedom*.
I am free because I am in Christ and all HIS righteousness has been credited to my account, so I am not obligated to obey a Law that nobody can obey anyway and cannot save even if they could.
Tried to stay out of it, but that comment brings me back to those who wanted to continue in the "old ways" by taking specific actions to be worthy of the Gift. They were chastised as having fallen from Grace because they would not allow themselves to be free in His sacrifice and gift. How does putting an extra load on one make them free or freer? How does one posit that Christ's gift of His body and blood needs human/religious intervention to become reality? Your words serve cheapen His sacrifice.
