Faith Working Through Love
For freedom Christ has set us free.
Stand firm, therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
Listen! I, Paul, am telling you that
if you let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no benefit to you. Once
again I testify to every man who lets himself be circumcised that he is obliged
to obey the entire law. You who want to be justified by the law have cut
yourselves off from Christ; you have fallen away from grace. For through the
Spirit, by faith, we eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness. For in Christ
Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts
for anything; the only thing that counts is faith working through love.
Many of us have gone through
struggles. We want deliverance from sin but are unable to shake off the chains
of habit. Then, as we turn in faith to Jesus, we are liberated.
Jesus can break the shackles of sin in
our lives. Receive Him as your own Savior.
True freedom
is found in serving Christ.
