CHOICES!

This morning while reading scripture I found where the Apostle Paul was writing in Romans 7 about living under "law" and living "apart from the law".  JESUS CHRIST came to "complete" the law for mankind.  In John 19:30 it is recorded "When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is FINISHED: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost."  

The "Battle" over man's soul was completed at Calvary.   But, even though the war has been won, we have the choice of whether to join the winning side or live in defeat!  You can "choose" to wallow in selfish desires or you can "surrender" to LIVE in freedom and joy that can only be found in JESUS!  

The "choice" has to be made by everyone!  JESUS proclaimed in Matthew 6:24 "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon."   I CHOOSE CHRIST!!
