“You have been set free from sin and have become
slaves to righteousness.”
Romans 6:18
We’d like to think that we were never on the auction
block being sold as a slave but we were.
Every one of us was a slave to sin when we did not know
God.
Every one of us!
Such was the shame, humiliation and demeaning of sin in
our lives.
Sin excludes no one.
Even those who may not share the same theology!
Even those deemed the ‘best and the brightest’ of
society.
Even those whose lives we might say is that of a ‘saint’.
Apart from God and the salvation paid for through His
Son – each of us stood on the auction block.
Our lives being surrendered to the highest bidder.
White, black, rich or poor, sin is the great
equalizer.
Praise God that the highest price possible was paid
for you and me!
Jesus bought us back (and brought us back) to the
Father through the redeeming work of the
cross.
As the song says:
“I’m no longer a slave to sin, I am a child of God!”
Let the message of this song sink deep into your spirit -
