1 Corinthians 6:9-11 (LSB) 9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10 nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
When Jesus sets us free, there is no question that we are TRULY free. Our bonds have been BROKEN; forever shattered and disposed of.
Those whom Jesus sets free are FREE INDEED.
Alcoholics Anonymous can’t set you free.
Narcotics anonymous can’t set you free.
Yes, they can try to help you avoid falling to the sin that has ensnared you. And each of them has some benefits that help millions of people. But you will never truly be free.
You will forever be labeled a drug addict, alcoholic, porn addict, depressed, fearful, anxious, etc.
And while finding some relief is good, true freedom in Christ is BETTER.
Why?
Because it is final. It is true. It is absolute.
It is FREE INDEED.
No longer are you subject to a label that names your struggle and is pinned to you for the rest of your life.
You have the opportunity to wear a new label; Set Free in the Name of Jesus.
You are now a former alcoholic, former drug addict, former porn addict, former sex addict, former nicotine addict, former homosexual, former adulterer, former fornicator, former thief, former extortionist.
We invite you and encourage you to let Jesus set you FREE INDEED.
There is no freedom like freedom in Christ.
The struggle can end right here, right now if we choose to make it so.
Be free in the name of Jesus!
Amen 🙏🏻
