GOSPEL NUGGET #256

Independence Day

Joh 8:34 Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.
John 8:36 “If the Son therefore shall make you FREE, ye shall be FREE INDEED” 

Many people living in this free country are under bondage. They are under the bondage of lust, selfish ambition, pride and many other sinful attitudes. 

When Master Lust says: "Go and do this!" They find themselves unable to resists him. They go and do his bidding. 

When Master Selfish Ambition says: "Go and aim for this!" Off they go and chart their lives after his wishes. 

When Master Pride says: "Go and exalt and promote yourself!" They go and seek great things for themSELVES!" 

Countless other masters have enslaved many of us here. At the end of the day, these slaves find themselves hurt, devastated and bewildered. They have pierced themselves with many sorrows with the consequences of their slavery to Master Sin. 

Do you want to be freed from the slavery of sin? Come to Christ, The Emancipator!
