1/16/2023 0 Comments Born into SlaveryWe all start our journey through this life in the same place, and it isn’t pretty. Thanks to our distant ancestors, Adam and Eve, we are born into slavery – imprisoned by sin. Paul describes this as living in darkness. That darkness was humanity’s primary reality until light broke into the world in the person of Jesus. He has provided a way by which we can all experience a much different reality.
Questions for further thought: 1. How do you imagine a prisoner feels when they are released? Have you experienced anything like this in your spiritual journey? 2. Do you view unbelievers as prisoners living in darkness? Challenge: Consider the gift of grace. Note some of the differences that deliverance from the prison of sin makes in your everyday life. Thank God for a few of them today.
