Free Indeed

Hello everyone! Do you know that there is liberty in Christ Jesus? There is freedom from the constraints of man. There can be freedom from the commandments and indoctrination of man. There are so many Saints who are bound by memberships of somebody’s religious organization their “church home.” These “church homes” have man made doctrines and rules for each member to follow. There is usually a membership fee called “tithes and offerings” as well.

You are told you must attend the “church home” meetings, which can be anything from two or more times a week. You’re restricted from going to other “churches” they’re the competition you know. Some leaders of “church homes” pick your spouse, they dictate your ministry, govern your marriage, your personal care like your hair and personal grooming. They control what you eat, how you fellowship, how you dress, what restaurants and grocery stores you are allowed to patronize.

They bind and control your life while even claiming to have directives for your life through Christ Jesus. Saints, if you rely on the “church home” for all these things then wherefore are you free? Where is your personal relationship with the head of God’s Church, Christ Jesus? No man and nothing can take his place in your life.

“Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him. As he spake these words, many believed on him. Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:28-32 KJV

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1 KJV

These false leaders of the “church home” truly become your spiritual leaders. You look for a word from God from them. You revere them. You follow them. How then are you following Jesus Christ? You have lost your way, you have lost your first love and you don’t even realize it. Let go of the “church home” Saints. You must do your first works all over again. Repent and follow Jesus the Christ!

“For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.
While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.” 2 Peter 18-20 KJV

“I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name’s sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love. Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” Revelations 2:2-5 KJV
