We Are To Love And Serve One Another

 Some Christians use the incredible freedom we have in Christ to indulge in worldly ways and carnal activities. They exploit our spiritual privileges and pervert the Word of God by proclaiming that we are free to indulge in whatsoever ungodly acts and fleshly inclinations take our fancy. This is outrageous and such misappropriation of God's Word is unacceptable, unscriptural, and should be challenged and changed.
 Once we have been saved and set free from sin, by faith, we become a new creation in Christ.  Although our sin nature is still resident within our mortal flesh, we have received power from on high to mortify our egocentric self and to keep our sin nature nailed to the Cross. We can do this through the power of the Holy Spirit Who lives in us and guides us towards the good and away from the evil.
 We have spiritual armor to protect ourselves from the ravages of the flesh and we have been given God's grace to stand fast in this evil day and resist the devil and all his worldly temptations.  We Are To Love And Serve One Another in the same way that Christ loved us and gave Himself for us.
Galatians 5:13 You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for this important reminder that both legalism and a license to sin is unacceptable in the life of a child of God. Thank You for the freedoms we have in Christ, and help us to live in holiness and righteousness to Your praise and glory, serving others through Christ's love, which only comes as we continue to abide in Him and He in us. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
