Have YOU Declared Your Independence, From The Bondage Of Sin

Fellow Believers, ONLY GOD Almighty, Himself, PUTS UPON Someone’s Heart, The Desire To Hear THE TRUTH, The Desire To Acknowledge THE TRUTH, The Desire To Understand THE TRUTH, And Most Importantly, The Desire To Accept THE TRUTH (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ)!

John 1:12-13

BUT, As Many, As RECEIVED HIM (Jesus Christ), TO Them (Fellow Believers), HE (GOD Almighty) GAVE THE RIGHT, TO Become CHILDREN Of GOD (GOD Almighty); TO Those (Fellow Believers), WHO BELIEVE IN HIS NAME (Jesus Christ): Who Were BORN, NOT Of Blood, NOR Of The Will Of The Flesh, NOR Of The Will Of Man, BUT (Born) Of GOD (THROUGH The Holy Spirit)!

John 3:5-8

Jesus Answered, “Most Assuredly, I (Jesus) SAY TO YOU (Fellow Believers), UNLESS, One Is Born Of Water (The Natural Body) And THE SPIRIT (THROUGH The Holy Spirit), He Can NOT Enter THE KINGDOM Of GOD (GOD Almighty)! THAT, Which Is Born Of The Flesh (The Natural Body), IS Flesh (The Natural Body), And THAT, Which Is BORN Of THE SPIRIT (THROUGH The Holy Spirit), IS SPIRIT (The Spiritual Body)! Do NOT Marvel, That I (Jesus) SAID TO YOU, ‘YOU (Fellow Believers) MUST BE BORN AGAIN (THROUGH The Holy Spirit)!’ The Wind Blows Where IT Wishes, And YOU (Fellow Believers) Hear The Sound Of IT, BUT, Can NOT Tell Where IT Comes From And Where IT Goes! So, IS Everyone (Fellow Believers), Who Is BORN Of THE SPIRIT (THROUGH The Holy Spirit)!”

Romans 10:8-10

BUT, What Does IT Say (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ)?

“THE WORD IS NEAR YOU (Yet-To-Be-Believers), IN Your Mouth And IN Your Heart!”

THAT IS, THE WORD Of FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), Which We (Fellow Believers) Preach:

THAT, IF YOU (Yet-To-Be-Believers) CONFESS With Your Mouth, THE LORD Jesus, And BELIEVE, IN Your Heart That GOD (GOD Almighty) Has RAISED HIM (Jesus, ALIVE) From The Dead (i.e. Jesus’ Crucifixion, Resurrection, AND Subsequent, Ascension), YOU (Fellow Believers) Will Be SAVED (From The Lake Of Fire, The Second Death, EVERLASTING CONDEMNATION)!

For With The Heart, One BELIEVES Unto Righteousness, AND With The Mouth, CONFESSION (Of THIS FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ) IS Made Unto SALVATION (EVERLASTING LIFE, IN GOD Almighty’s Immediate Presence, With Jesus Christ, The Holy Spirit, GOD Almighty’s Holy Angels, And All The Rest Of The Children Of GOD Almighty, FOR ETERNITY, FOREVER)!

1 Corinthians 15:3-6a

For I Delivered To YOU (Fellow Believers), First Of All, That Which I Also RECEIVED (THROUGH The Holy Spirit): THAT Christ Died For Our Sins (Once For All Believers), According To THE SCRIPTURES (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), And THAT, HE (Jesus) Was Buried, And THAT, HE (Jesus) ROSE (ALIVE) Again, The Third Day, According To THE SCRIPTURES (The Holy Bible, AND Specifically, The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), And THAT, HE (Jesus) Was SEEN (ALIVE) By Cephas (aka Peter), THEN, By The Twelve (Jesus’ Disciples)! AFTER THAT, HE (Jesus) Was SEEN (ALIVE) By Over Five Hundred Brethren (Fellow Believers) At Once (i.e. Jesus’ Crucifixion, Resurrection, AND Subsequent, Ascension)!

Ephesians 2:8-10

FOR BY GRACE (GOD Almighty’s Amazing Saving GRACE), YOU (Fellow Believers) Have Been SAVED (From The Lake Of Fire, The Second Death, EVERLASTING CONDEMNATION), THROUGH FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), And That NOT Of Yourselves; IT IS THE GIFT Of GOD (GOD Almighty’s FREE GIFT Of SALVATION), NOT Of (Mankind’s) Works, Lest, Anyone Should Boast! For We (Fellow Believers) Are HIS (GOD Almighty's) WORKMANSHIP, CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS, For Good Works (GOD Almighty’s Good Works, Performed THROUGH Us), Which GOD (GOD Almighty) PREPARED, BEFOREHAND, That We (Fellow Believers) Should Walk In Them!

Ephesians 4:4-6

THERE IS: ONE BODY (The Body Of Christ) AND ONE SPIRIT (The Holy Spirit), Just As, YOU (Fellow Believers) Were CALLED (To Be Children Of GOD Almighty), IN ONE HOPE (Of EVERLASTING LIFE) Of Your Calling; ONE LORD (Jesus Christ), ONE FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), ONE BAPTISM (With The Holy Spirit); ONE GOD AND FATHER Of All (GOD Almighty), WHO IS, ABOVE ALL, AND THROUGH ALL, AND IN YOU ALL (Fellow Believers)!

Romans 8:14-17, 29-30

For As Many, As Are LED, BY THE SPIRIT Of GOD (The Holy Spirit), THESE (Fellow Believers) Are SONS Of GOD (Children Of GOD Almighty)! For YOU (Fellow Believers) Did NOT Receive The Spirit Of Bondage (Satan), Again, To Fear; BUT, YOU (Fellow Believers) RECEIVED, THE SPIRIT Of ADOPTION (The Holy Spirit), BY WHOM, We (Fellow Believers) Cry Out, “ABBA, FATHER (GOD Almighty)!”

THE SPIRIT (The Holy Spirit), Himself, Bears Witness, With Our Spirit (Believers’ Spirits) That We (Fellow Believers) Are CHILDREN Of GOD (GOD Almighty), And IF Children, THEN HEIRS — Heirs Of GOD And Joint Heirs With Christ (Of The Kingdom Of GOD Almighty), IF Indeed, We Suffer With HIM, That We (Fellow Believers) May Also, BE GLORIFIED TOGETHER (IN Our Spiritual Bodies, At The Being Caught Up Together)!

For Whom, HE (GOD Almighty) FOREKNEW, HE Also PREDESTINED, TO BE CONFORMED (IN The Spiritual Body), TO THE IMAGE Of HIS SON (Jesus Christ), That HE (Jesus) Might Be THE FIRSTBORN (IN The Spiritual Body) Among Many Brethren (Fellow Believers, Children Of GOD Almighty)!

Moreover, Whom HE (GOD Almighty) PREDESTINED, These (Fellow Believers), HE Also, CALLED (To Be Children Of GOD Almighty); Whom HE CALLED, These (Fellow Believers), HE Also, JUSTIFIED; and Whom, HE JUSTIFIED, These (Fellow Believers), HE (GOD Almighty) Also, GLORIFIED (In Our Spiritual Bodies, At The Being Caught Up Together)!

Galatians 4:6-7

And Because YOU (Fellow Believers) Are SONS (Children Of GOD Almighty), GOD Has Sent Forth THE SPIRIT Of HIS SON, Into Your Hearts (Jesus Christ ABIDES WITHIN Us, THROUGH The Holy Spirit), Crying Out, “ABBA, FATHER (GOD Almighty)!” Therefore, YOU (Fellow Believers) Are NO Longer A Slave (In The Bondage Of Sin), BUT A SON (Children Of GOD Almighty), And IF A Son, THEN, An Heir Of GOD (GOD Almighty), THROUGH Christ!

Hebrews 2:14-15

Inasmuch Then, As The Children (Fellow Believers) Have Partaken Of Flesh AND Blood (The Natural Body), HE (Jesus Christ), Himself, Likewise, Shared In The Same (The Natural Body), That THROUGH Death (i.e. Jesus’ Crucifixion, Resurrection, AND Subsequent, Ascension), HE (Jesus Christ) Might DESTROY Him, Who Had The Power Of Death, THAT IS, the devil (Satan), And RELEASE Those (Fellow Believers), Who THROUGH Fear Of Death, Were All Their Lifetime, Subject To Bondage (The Bondage Of Sin)!

2 Corinthians 5:1-8

For We (Fellow Believers) KNOW, That IF Our Earthly House (The Natural Body), THIS Tent, IS Destroyed (We Die A Physical Death Of The Natural Body), We (Fellow Believers) Have A BUILDING (The Spiritual Body), From GOD (GOD Almighty), A HOUSE (The Spiritual Body), NOT Made With (Human) Hands, ETERNAL, IN The Heavens!

For, IN THIS (The Natural Body), We (Fellow Believers) Groan, Earnestly Desiring To Be CLOTHED With OUR HABITATION (The Spiritual Body), Which IS From Heaven (From GOD Almighty); IF Indeed, Having Been CLOTHED (In Our Spiritual Bodies), We (Fellow Believers) Shall NOT Be Found Naked!

For We (Fellow Believers), Who Are In THIS Tent (The Natural Body) Groan, Being Burdened, NOT Because We Want To Be Unclothed, BUT Further CLOTHED (IN The Spiritual Body), That Mortality (The Natural Body) May Be SWALLOWED UP, BY LIFE (EVERLASTING LIFE, IN Our Spiritual Bodies)!

NOW, HE, WHO Has Prepared Us (Fellow Believers), For THIS Very Thing, IS GOD (GOD Almighty), WHO Also, Has GIVEN Us THE SPIRIT (The Holy Spirit), As A Guarantee (Of EVERLASTING LIFE)!

SO, WE (Fellow Believers) ARE ALWAYS CONFIDENT, KNOWING, That While We Are At Home In The (Natural) Body, We Are ABSENT From THE LORD (Jesus Christ)! For We (Fellow Believers) WALK BY FAITH (FAITH, IN The Gospel Of Jesus Christ), NOT By (Human) Sight! WE (Fellow Believers) ARE CONFIDENT, YES, Well Pleased Rather, To Be ABSENT From The (Natural) Body, And To Be PRESENT With THE LORD (Jesus Christ)!

1 Corinthians 15:51-53

Behold, I Tell YOU (Fellow Believers), A Mystery (Something Once KNOWN, BUT Now, Forgotten): We (Pre-Tribulation Believers) Shall NOT All Sleep (Die A Physical Death Of The Natural Body); BUT, We (Pre-Tribulation Believers) Shall All BE CHANGED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE, Into Our Spiritual Bodies) — IN A Moment, IN The Twinkling Of An Eye (IN A Millisecond), AT THE LAST (Blowing Of The) TRUMPET!

For THE TRUMPET (Of GOD Almighty) Will SOUND, And THE DEAD (Pre-Tribulation Dead Believers) Will Be RAISED (ALIVE), INCORRUPTIBLE (IN Their Spiritual Bodies), AND We (Pre-Tribulation LIVING Believers) Shall Be CHANGED (An Instantaneous Supernatural CHANGE, Into Our Spiritual Bodies)!

For THIS Corruptible (The Natural Body), MUST Put On INCORRUPTION (The Spiritual Body); And THIS Mortal (The Natural Body), MUST Put On IMMORTALITY (The Spiritual Body)!

Fellow Believers, We Have Acknowledged GOD Almighty's Amazing Saving GRACE And We Have Accepted GOD Almighty’s FREE GIFT Of SALVATION (Which COMES ONLY, THROUGH Jesus Christ); Therefore, Jesus Christ ABIDES WITHIN Us, THROUGH The Holy Spirit; And HE (The Holy Spirit) Is Our Guarantee Of EVERLASTING LIFE!

WE KNOW, Jesus Christ WALKS WITH Us, The Holy Spirit TEACHES Us, And Most Importantly, GOD Almighty WATCHES OVER Us, Always!

Remember, The Being Caught Up Together IS IMMINENT!

May OUR LORD, Jesus Christ, Find YOU Going About THE FATHER’S Business; Which IS, Sharing The Gospel Of Jesus Christ; As A Good And Faithful Servant! Amen.
