I
will go and proclaim the sending away of captives from the house
of bondage. Jesus offered himself a ransom for the sins of the
whole world and freed those who will accept the glorious gospel
from the claim that evil had upon all. There is no need for
service in the house of bondage. The obligation held over man's
head is no longer in effect. By the gospel, God has freed man
from the obligation to serve sin. Through Adam, the blame came
upon all, but through the second man Adam, the commending of
liberty came. Though death came upon all by the disobedience
of one, now righteousness has come upon all by the obedience
of one. His vengeance was vented upon the Lamb of God. It pleased
God to bruise him for the sake of allowing me to go free and
to be discharged from the horrible oath taken by Adam.
The
sin ulcer yet discharges its pus in the mouth of man who has
not accepted the offering made for sin. The power of justification
allows man to drink from the pipe of fresh water as he is released
from his confinement and discharged from being a prisoner. I
will go and say, "The Lord has thrown off the load of sin
and freed you from the load of transgressions." God has
given them the virtue of righteousness in exchange for the burden
of sin. I will go and say, "The Lord has discharged the cargo
of iniquity." He has given them a divorce from their labor
as sinners and offered them the easy yoke of divinity. The resurrection
is a living expression that gives evidence of man's acquittal.
All who do not accept the glorious gospel will remain under
the conviction of the charges against all men. They will be
sentenced to the judgment of damnation. I will not accept the
sentence of damnation when the price for deliverance has been
paid to ransom me from sin. I will not stand aside idly and
be dismissed from my responsibility as a recipient of this good
news. I am a debtor to every man because I have received much.
To whom much is given, much is required. It should be a great
embarrassment to a believer to have in their possession the
secrets to abundant life and not share it with others. God desires
to explode the truth in the earth and free men from their liabilities.
He is a liberal God. I will go and proclaim the generous attitude
that he has sent forth into the earth. He came with the open
hand of mercy and invited men to come into the storehouse of
plenty. He is plenteous in redemption. God's long-suffering
has reached to the lowest pits of this world. I go to the low
places in this life and declare the generosity being expressed
in this evil day. Where iniquity is abounding, great grace is
abounding much more. Though all men contacted the disease of
sin, he has made righteousness available for the healing of
this disorder. I will go and preach the redemption of man. He
has signed the release of all men. Those who believe shall come
out on the wings of the mighty eagle of salvation. I will open
my mouth wide and proclaim the liberty of his blood that Jesus
offered as the price for the freedom of all. The justice offered
by justification will free the people from the obstruction of
unbelief. The clouds and the fog of unbelief shall not hinder
his word, for his word is not bound. His word supplies a clear
view into heavenly places. I look again into the pathway of
his word and behold the steps of Messiah who has made the way
of victory clear. I walk in his steps, and I shall walk free
from guilt or blame. I walk in his steps, and I shall remain
unspotted and irreproachable. I will be occupied with following
in his steps, and I will not be prosecuted by the evil prosecuting
attorney of the air. In the path of righteousness, there are
no deductions from my faith and no charges against my life.
In the path of righteousness, there is no entanglement or embarrassment.
I am free. I am out of danger of the blows of sin. I will go
and proclaim the truths spoken in my ears.
Hebrews
10:22 - 23
Let
us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having
our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies
washed with pure water. Let
us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)
Ephesians
2:8-9
For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
