Bought At a Price! The Precious Shed Blood of Jesus Christ

You Are Not Your Own Anymore! Did you know that?

We as followers of Jesus Christ think we still have a say over these blood-bought bodies! We do not! It was bought with the precious, priceless, matchless, shed blood of Jesus Christ! We are not our own! The confusion comes into play when we still think we have a say about our lives! Our lives are now in Christ! This is not a democracy where the people have a voice like in the earthly satanic pagan secular world! The Kingdom of God is a theocracy! There is one King! One God! One LORD! One Spirit of Truth! One Head of the Body of Christ - Jesus Christ who willingly laid down His perfect sinless life for our sins. 3 days later, God raised Jesus from the dead! You and I are not our own!! We are bondservants to the One who ransomed us from the kingdom of darkness and saved us from the coming just wrath of holy God. We have been reconciled to God through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ! Some of us, still think that we have a right to do with these mortal bodies as we wish! Those in the world, this is their mantra: my body, my choice! Don't be deceived as these pagan unbelieving gentiles. Paul teaches us, by the Spirit of God, in Ephesians 4:17-24, that we "must no longer live as the unbelieving Gentiles live, in the futility of their minds and in the foolishness and emptiness of their souls, for their moral understanding is darkened and their reasoning is clouded; they are alienated and self-banished from the life of God with no share in it; this is because of the willful ignorance and spiritual blindness that is deep seated within them, because of the hardness and insensitivity of their heart. And they, the ungodly in their spiritual apathy, having become callous and unfeeling, have given themselves over as prey to unbridled sensuality, eagerly craving the practice of every kind of impurity that their desires may demand. But you did not learn Christ in this way! If in fact you have really heard him and have been taught by him, just as truth is in Jesus revealed in his life and personified in him, that regarding your previous way of life, you put off your old self completely discard your former nature, which is being corrupted through deceitful desires, and be continually renewed in the spirit of your mind having a fresh, untarnished mental and spiritual attitude, and put on the new self, the regenerated and renewed nature, created in God's image, God-like in the righteousness and Holiness of the truth living in a way that expresses to God your gratitude for your salvation." Amen. Be holy. Live clean. Consider all your ways before the LORD! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!
