and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

Freedom……a word in the US, that seems to mean these days, you can do, and say whatever you want. Freedom in Christ, our heavenly citizenship, is freedom from the bondage of sin, and condemnation that Satan proclaims, as well as the system of legalism of the Law, which only Jesus could keep. We are free to devote ourselves to love and good works, and if we fall, we are cleansed by the work of Jesus, on the cross. Can I get an Amen?
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
2 Corinthians 3:17 NASB

May we be used by God, to help rescue those, that will receive wrath, if they don’t turn (repent), from their sinful ways, and follow Jesus. For God, does not want anyone to perish, so he waits patiently, so that all might be saved.
He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
John 3:36 NASB

Though the enemy surrounds us, and we are in a spiritual battle daily, we can have confidence, in our God to watch over us. May our day be surrounded in the security of his love. God Bless.
But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength; Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning, For You have been my stronghold And a refuge in the day of my distress.
Psalms 59:16 NASB

Paul was writing to the Roman church, to let them clearly understand, that this hope extended to not just the Jewish people, but to all of mankind. God’s plan for salvation, always was to include all of mankind. In 15-9-12, Paul quotes from the Law, the Prophets, and Psalms, to make his case.
Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Romans 15:13 NASB

Don’t rely on the worlds things for your security. Instead, rely on Gods perfections, like faithfulness, power, mercy, and wisdom, to draw from. They will not let you down. He is the same, yesterday, today and tomorrow!
Putting your trust in Jesus, is a conscious effort, no matter what your emotional reaction or circumstance.
The LORD has our back! How much comfort is that. Paul says it this way, in Romans, “neither death, no life, nor Angels, nor Principalities, nor things Present, nor things Past, nor Height, nor Depth, nor any other Created Thing, shall separate us from the LOVE of God, which is in CHRIST JESUS, our LORD!
“The Lord your God is in your midst, A victorious warrior. He will exult over you with joy, He will be quiet in His love, He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.
Zephaniah 3:17 NASB

The assumption is that there are two gates that lead to heaven. The wide gate is all religions of works and self righteousness that lead to destruction. Jesus said that the narrow gate is to follow him by faith, which is the only way to salvation. This is the narrow gate. It is by Grace alone, but it is not an easy path. It takes knowledge of God’s truth, repentance, and submission to Jesus’s path, and not our own. Thank you Jesus, for you Holy Spirit, that helps us on that narrow path, to all who choose to follow it.
“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

A few good friends who pursue truth and righteousness, strengthens the body and soul. They speak truth, whether in encouragement or correction. They help keep us focus on the goal, for the prize, which is “Good News” (see link for good news video link below, from the Bible Project)
Iron sharpens iron, So one man sharpens another.
