Day 218: Psalms 75-76; Romans 6

How powerful the imagery of Romans 6! Freed from the power of sin's slavery, we have been buried with Christ in baptism (dying to sin) and raised to a new life, slaves of grace. The irony of this slavery is the pure freedom it offers. We are free from judgment, free from guilt, free from shame. We are free to live our best lives. We have this hope: eternal life. For the just desert of sin is eternal death, but the gift of grace freely offered is eternal life through Jesus Christ. There are, in the end, only two choices: death as a consequence of our own sinful living; or, life in Christ by His grace. Choose life! Live life...in Christ!
