Getting Out of Our Prisons | We Are Light (Part 2) (Jim Shelburne)

Through our identity in Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit, we have been enabled to live lives with qualities that distinguish us from the pagan world. As we “take off“ our natural habits and “put on“ better ones that reflect Christ, the world takes notice and is impacted by our influence. The contrast will bring light into the darkness.

Sadly, even those who are in Christ still wear the chains and inhabit the prisons that go with our fallen natures when we lie or steal or rage or spew—even when we refuse to forgive or act unkindly. In our lesson today Paul is going to show us that we were made for something better. We were made to be free from such chains.
