These trut...

We learn that even though we are free in Christ that love for others will sometimes call us to not hang on to our rights.

Christ has set you free not to live however you please, but to love and serve God and others.

True faith produces a growing desire for holiness, guided by God's Word and empowered by the Holy Spirit. As you stand firm for biblical truth, remember to treat fellow believers with...
