Mastery Over the Believer

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Verse: “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.” – John 13:13

Quote: “The revelation of my growth in grace is the way in which I look upon obedience.”

Jesus leaves us free from the obligation of obedience, and give us the ability to choose. “So free that we can spit in His face, as men did; so free that we can put Him to death, as men did; and He will never say a word.” We must learn that obedience is not our duty to Christ, for He never insists upon it, but it is a result of our relationship as sons of the Father.
