JAIL FROM THE INSIDE OUT...

JAIL FROM THE INSIDE OUT!!!

Read:
Romans 6:15-23
----------------------------------------
"When you were slaves of sin, you were
free in regards to Righteousness." Romans 6:20

-----------------------------------------

From the outside,all jails look bad.But from the inside,

some prisons rate better than others.In 1992,The 

Associated Press published an inmates' list of the nation's 

10 best jails. Included in the survey werecell capacity,

TV service, meal quality, and visitation rights.

Some jails provide a smoke-free environment,

continuing education, and a good library. The first-rated 

Fairbanks Correctional Center in Alaska, for instance, has 

a capacity of 194, dormitory-style bunks in single and varied

and plentiful meals.

That got me thinking about our relationship to Christ. It can

look like a form of imprisonment to someone"on the outside."

To an unbeliever, obedience to the faithmay seem confining.

But from the inside, obedience to thefaith actually opens the 

door to a whole new world of freedoms.Apostle Paul was 

familiar with the inside of a cell.

He also knew that whether we are slaves to sin or to God isn't

determined by where we are doing time. It's a matter of the heart. 

Paul knew that with bondage to sincomes an ever-increasing hunger 

for that which dishonour God.
With slavery to God comes an ever-increased desire to do good, 

to love, and to be grateful for freedoms that brings no regret.         - MRD II

We were imprisoned by our sin,
Controlled by evil ways;
But then the Savior set us free
To serve Him all our days. - Sper


OBEDIENCE TO GOD IS THE KEY TO FREEDOM. GOD BLESS YOU!!!
