Freedom from bondage
Christ made us free according to Galatians 5:1. Living freely means we are no longer in debt to our sins. What a relief! Those that have accepted Jesus as Savior have such a huge burden lifted off their shoulders. We no longer have to worry that any wickedness we performed, or will perform, will send us to the lake of fire. God's law is so perfect and good that no man (except Jesus) has ever been able to live perfectly and therefore is guilty of breaking His law. Breaking His law is is punished by suffering eternal agony in the lake of fire. But, the Law God gave us no longer holds us (those who believe on Jesus) captive because Jesus died for our sins. His grace frees us and there is nothing I did to deserve His grace except believe on Jesus and what he did for me. To be without belief in Him is to be without freedom from eternal punishment. Thank you God for givnig me the truth and sparing my soul. Seeing my future as not being in the lake of fire is comforting enough to make the trials and hardships in this life worth going through.
