Breaking Free
Are you a slave of sin? Are you held in bondage by a sinful addiction? On today's Footsteps, Roger Lonnquist of Your Network of Praise in Montana and New Life Radio in Tanzania shares Doreen's testimony. Her life is "no longer the same" as a result of the transformative power of Christ. This turnaround can happen to you as well. Listen to these words from the apostle Paul:
"I am using an example from everyday life because of your human limitations. Just as you used to offer yourselves as slaves to impurity and to ever-increasing wickedness, so now offer yourselves as slaves to righteousness leading to holiness. When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness. What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Romans 6:19-23, NIV)
To put it simply, sin leads to death, but Jesus offers us the gift of life. How does this change occur? Click on the link below to watch a video or two that can help answer some of your questions.
