Jesus opened the jails for people to be free through Him. Freedom is a wonderful thing. Religion keeps people in jail, and eventually sends them to The Lake of Fire. 👎

I forgot to mention. When dealing with people in false religions, we have to clarify, what Christian freedom is. Many of them think that freedom means you are free to live like hell. ABSOLUTELY NOT. It means we are free, and no long slaves to the bondage of sin, and are free to do as we should, not as we please. In no way, does it authorize us to live like hell. I think that is what they would like to do, but that won’t cut the mustard. 👍

Very true!
Which is why I include daily repentance in my prayers to The Lord.

Not that I live like hell, but I do slip up with emotions, words, reactions, thoughts.

Our Spiritual Body Wash is 1 John 1:9

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.”

Paul addresses that in several places.

Are we to sin that grace may abound?

Absolutely not!

Those who claim the security of the believer means a license to sin are still dead in their sins. They DO NOT understand the new brith.
