About
I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS" BY DAVID MCMILLEN
DID YOU KNOW YOU ARE A SLAVE? THAT'S RIGHT, WE ARE ALL SLAVES. WE ARE EITHER A SLAVE TO SIN, WHICH IS OUR CARNAL SELF, OR A SLAVE TO JESUS AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS. AND, WE CAN'T BE A SLAVE TO BOTH AS WE CANNOT SERVE TWO MASTERS. THE DICTIONARY DEFINES "SLAVE" AS "a bond servant".
IN ROMANS 1:1, PAUL SAYS HE IS A SLAVE OR SERVANT "a servant of Jesus Christ" AND IN TITUS 1:1 HE CALLS HIMSELF "a servant of God". WE ALL SHOULD BE PROUD TO BE A SLAVE TO JESUS. IF WE ARE NOT AND ARE STILL, KNOWINGLY, COMMITTING SIN, WE SHOULD KNOW WHO WE ARE SLAVES TO. JESUS TELLS US WHO IN JOHN 8:34 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin."
WHEN WE REPENT AND RECEIVE JESUS AND FORGIVENESS FOR OUR SINS, WE HAVE THE HOLY SPIRIT LIVING INSIDE US. ONLY BY HIS POWER ARE WE ABLE TO RESIST SIN AND BECOME SLAVES TO JESUS AND HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS. JESUS IS THE MASTER I WANT, HOW ABOUT YOU.
I WILL LEAVE YOU WITH THESE THOUGHTS. WE BELONG TO JESUS JUST LIKE HIS DISCIPLES DID AND WE SHOULD WANT TO PLEASE HIM JUST LIKE THEY DID. THIS MEANS IF WE OBEY HIM, WE CAN BE FREE FROM SIN. WE CAN DO THIS BECAUSE HE SET US FREE FROM BEING A SLAVE TO SIN. THE GOOD THING ABOUT THIS IS THAT WE ARE NO LONGER UNDER THE PENALTY OF DEATH OR ARE SEPARATED FROM GOD. GO DIRECTLY TO HIM WITH YOUR CONCERNS. HE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE TO LISTEN BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU.
GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
