John 8:36 (NKJV) 36\u00a0Therefore if the\u00a0Son\u00a0makes you free, you shall be free indeed<\/span>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus Christ came to set us free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

What does He want to set us free from?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sin separates us from God. It drives a wedge between us and our Creator.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Why?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Because He is pure and holy, and sin cannot be in His presence. He can\u2019t even look upon sin.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But Jesus, by way of the shedding of His blood on the cross, made a way for us to be cleansed and forgiven for those sins, making it possible for God to embrace us and call us His own\u00a0children.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

All we have to do is go to Him, admit to our sinfulness, acknowledge our need for Jesus to be our Savior, ask Him to forgive us, and then turn from our sins.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The very moment we do that, He will forgive us and set us free from our sins.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And it won\u2019t be a temporary freedom. If we let Him, He will set us free permanently from whatever it is that\u2019s holding us in captivity; drug and alcohol addictions, sexual addictions, lust, lying, stealing, perversions and so much more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If it\u2019s holding you in bondage, Jesus wants to set you free from it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Oh, and it\u2019s important to know that when Jesus sets us free, we are free indeed!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We are not just sort of free. We are 100% free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Jesus doesn\u2019t do things halfway. If He breaks the chains of bondage, He destroys every link of that chain, not just a few of them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The only thing we have to do is to let Him. Let Him destroy the bonds that hold us in captivity. Let Him break those chains that keep us shackled.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

And want to know the best part? When He sets us free, He wants us to be free for the rest of our lives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

He gives us what we need to defeat evil in our lives once and for all.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

So, here\u2019s the question we need to ask; will we let Him set us free? Will we take the things that hold us in captivity and hand them over to Him, laying them at His feet for the rest of our lives?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Only we can answer that question. What will\u00a0your<\/em>\u00a0answer be?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
