It liberates me, ...I'm free, free from keeping rituals, rules and regulations, I was saved in a legalistic church and every Sunday I was going forward at the alter call to be saved again because I wasn't assured I had done enough to merit His love, and then Father, in His infinite love taught me about His grace, I don't have to pray, tithe, be loving, go to church, I don't have to be baptized, take communion or any other church ordinances, ...I free because I'm justified, that means I'm innocent, without spot or blemish, I don't have to do anything and Father will still love me for all Eternity and take me to Heaven to be with Him,
...soooo, I do tithe and give offerings, I do pray, I am loving and considerate of other people, I do go to church, I do take communion, I am baptized, I do follow the rules and regulations as taught in the Epistles, why, not because I have to, but because it's my puny way of showing my love to my God.
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Savior, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.
In His Love,
Gene
