Holiness, The Only Freedom

Holiness is the only freedom in existence.

Holiness is the freedom found in Heaven.

Heaven is Holy and Free.

Holiness can only be accomplished by Christ living in and through you.

When Christ Jesus said that if the Son sets you free you are free indeed

This is what He meant [John 8:36];

His Holiness, brought about by His Spirit living in and through you.

Greater is He [Christ Jesus] Who is in you

Than he [Satan] who is in the world. (1 John 4:4)

What does Holiness free us from?

From the Sin that so easily entangles us [Hebrews 12:1].

Apart from Christ Jesus, every person is a slave to Sin.

Every person is born into Sin, and a slave to Sin.

Listen to the apostle Paul speak about this:

Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone

To obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey--

Whether you are slaves to Sin, which leads to death, or to obedience,

Which leads to righteousness?

But thanks be to God that, though you used to be slaves to Sin,

You wholeheartedly obeyed the form of teaching

To which you were entrusted.

You have been set free from Sin

And have become slaves to righteousness. (Romans 6:16-18)

The apostle Peter speaks about False Teachers and Freedom:

These men [false teachers] are springs without water

And mists driven by a storm.

Blackest Darkness is reserved for them.

For they mouth empty, boastful words and,

By appealing to the lustful desires of Sinful Human Nature,

They entice people who are just escaping from those who live in ERROR.

They promise them freedom,

While they themselves are slaves of DEPRAVITY--

For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him.

If they have escaped the CORRUPTION OF THE WORLD

By knowing our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ

And then are ENTANGLED in it and overcome,

They are worse off at the end than they were at the beginning.

It would have been better for them

Not to have known the Way of Righteousness,

Than to turn their backs on the Sacred Commandment

That was passed on to them.

Of them the proverbs are true: 'A dog returns to its vomit,'

And, 'a sow that is washed goes back to her wallowing in the mud.'

(2 Peter 2:17-22)

But just as He Who called you is Holy, so be Holy in all you do;

For it is written: 'Be Holy because I AM Holy. (1 Peter 1:15-16)

Holiness is the nature of God and of His Heaven.

God calls us to be Holy as He is Holy

Because that is the only way we can be free;

It is the only way we will see Heaven.

Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be Holy;

Without Holiness no one will see the Lord. (1 Peter 12:14)

Therefore, since we are surrounded

By such a Great Cloud Of Witnesses,

Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles,

And let us run with PERSEVERANCE the RACE marked out for us.

Let us FIX OUR EYES ON JESUS, the Author and Perfecter of our Faith,

Who for the Joy set before Him endured the Cross,

Scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Consider Him Who ENDURED SUCH OPPOSITION from sinful men,

So that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

In your struggle against Sin,

You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

And you have forgotten that word of encouragement

That addresses you as sons:

'My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline,

And do not lose heart when He rebukes you,

Because the Lord disciplines those He loves,

And He punishes everyone He accepts as a son.' (Hebrews 12:1-6)

His Divine Power has given us EVERYTHING WE NEED

For LIFE and godliness through our knowledge of Him

Who called us by His Own Glory and goodness.

Through these He has given us His very Great and Precious Promises,

So that THROUGH THEM you may participate in the Divined Nature

And ESCAPE THE CORRUPTION IN THE WORLD caused by EVIL desires.

(2 Peter 1:3-4)

God has allowed us to Participate in the Divine Nature

Through Christ living in and through us;

And therefore being Holy as He is Holy

And in His Holiness we are set FREE!

I pray that all who read this message are Holy and Free.

Today, the world is raging against God, rushing toward oblivion. (Psalm 2)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this corrupt generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
