Oct 21 THE NEW LIFE SHOULD NEVER GET OLD:  FREEDOM FOREVER IN CHRIST  

Romans 6:18 “Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.”

Once we are free in Christ, it remains an everlasting freedom as we remain in Him.  Although the 13th Amendment was established in 1865 to abolish slavery in the United States, there still was a need to implement civil rights.  The Civil Rights Act of 1964 established freedom and equality for all and prohibited discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin.  We are still seeking this equality as a society today.  But the finished work of Jesus Christ has made it possible to remain free without the need to fight again for that freedom as long as we stay in Him.
