Are You In The Word?


One of the biggest reasons why we may remain in bondage to sin, even though we have been 'legally' set free, is because of ignorance of the truth. 

Jesus speaks of this in John 8:31-36

31 Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings. 32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
33 “But we are descendants of Abraham,” they said. “We have never been slaves to anyone. What do you mean, ‘You will be set free’?”
34 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin. 35 A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son is part of the family forever. 36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.


"...faithful to my teachings" 
This past Sunday during our Young Adults Sunday School class we talked about challenging our faith.
It came down to the fact that sometimes we don't share our faith because we're not equipping ourselves properly. Therefore we hesitate sharing it.

(Something to chew on)
Are we ignorant to the truth? Are you in the Word?
