UNLOADING OUR CONDEMNATION

 John 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal, and kill, and destroy; I came that they might have life, and might have it abundantly. NAS

VERY FEW THINGS IN LIFE CAN HOLD US BACK FROM LIVING THE LIFE OF ABUNDANCE SUCH AS LIVING A LIFE UNDER A POWERFUL SYSTEM OF GUILT INDUCED SHAME THAT IS FUELED BY STRICT RULES AND REGULATIONS

THIS TYPE OF LIVING IS WITHOUT LIFE AND ANY SENSE OF DESTINY

MANY CHURCHES HAVE SYSTEMS OF THESE RULES AND NEVER EVER DISCOVERING THE LIFE JESUS CAME TO GIVE US.

LIFE IS NEVER DISCOVERED THRU A SYSTEM OR STRUCTURE.

LIFE FLOWS INTO STRUCTURE, STRUCTURE NEVER PRODUCES LIFE LIFE FLOWS THRU OUT THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND INTO THE STRUCTURE GOD SETS IN PLACE

JESUS SAID IN JOHN 10:10b I HAVE COME TO GIVE YOU LIFE,

HE DID NOT SAY I HAVE COME TO GIVE YOU STRUCTURE

OUT OF LIFE APPROPIATE BEHAVIOR FLOWS

OUT OF LIFE DESTINY FLOWS,

THIS LIFE BECOMES THE FOUNTAIN THAT CONTAINS THOSE THINGS, AND IN OUR DESIRE TO FIND LIFE WE FOUND RELIGION WHICH DOES NOT PRODUCE LIFE

Rom 2:4b  the goodness of God leads you to repentance? NKJV

WE STRUGGLE UNDER CONDEMNATION BECAUSE WE ALLOWED OURSELVES TO LABOR UNDER THE LAW

THE LAW OF MOSES IS THE MASTER OF CONDEMNATION

Rom 4:15 for the Law brings about wrath, but where there is no law, neither is there violation. NAS

THE BIBLE MAKES IT CLEAR THE LAW OF GOD IS HOLY AND PERFECT, BUT THE STANDARD IS TOO HIGH FOR ANY OF US TO MEET IT WAS GIVEN BY GOD, FOR ONE PURPOSE, TO REVEAL TO US THE NEED FOR A SAVIOR

Rom 3:20 because by the works of the Law no flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law comes the knowledge of sin. NAS

UP UNTIL THIS TIME MAN DID NOT KNOW IF HE WAS PLEASING GOD OR FAILING GOD; SO GOD BROUGHT HIS LAW TO EARTH, FULLY UNDERSTANDING NO ONE COULD MEET IT

GOD SENT HIS SON TO KEEP THE STANDARD FOR US AND TO EMPOWER US UNTO RIGHTEOUSNESS SO WE COULD BE SET FREE FROM THE LAW

JESUS CHRIST CAME TO REDEEM US AND SET US FREE FORM THE LAW OF SIN AND DEATH. THE LAW REVEALED YOUR BROKENESS AND YOUR FAILURE TO MEET GODS STANDARDS.

THIS BROUGHT YOU TO A PLACE WHERE YOU ACCEPTED THE FACT YOU NEEDED A SAVIOUR

A SAVIOUR WHO PURCHASED YOU FROM ALL YOUR SINS AND SET YOU FREE; AT THAT MOMENT OF TIME, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS BECAME YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS

YOU ENTERED INTO A BRAND NEW LIFE AND IT WAS A AWESOME THING

EXCEPT THAT OVER THE PROCESS OF TIME, WE FALL BACK INTO TRYING TO PLEASE GOD BY KEEPING THE LAW

JESUS CAME PREACHING GRACE AND TRUTH

THIS MESSAGE OF GOD’S GRACE WILL BRING SINNERS TO REPENTANCE,

THIS MESSAGE OF GRACE AND TRUTH LEADS THE SINNER TO A CONVERSION OF REPENTANCE AND NOT A CONVERSION FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN TO THE BONDAGE OF RELIGION

A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST GIVES LIFE.

IF YOU ARE STILL STRUGGLING WITH YOUR THEOLOGY YOU WERE RAISED IN, GIVE IT UP TO JESUS AND ACCEPT THE FACT HE DID IT ALL FOR YOU.

THERE IS NO FEAR IN HIS LOVE BECAUSE PERFECT LOVE CAST OUT ALL FEAR

THE LAW CANNOT GIVE YOU THE ABILITY TO BREAK FREE OF THE SPIRITS OF DARKNESS

THIS ONLY COMES BY FAITH AND LIVING INTIMATELY WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT

ONLY THIS RELATIONSHIP WITH CHRIST WILL KEEP YOU LIVING
