Free, Indeed

God did it! He kept His word. He always does. 

Paul said in Acts 13:32-41 that he was preaching "the good news of the promise made to the fathers". And even though the rulers in Jerusalem recognized neither God in the flesh or Jesus' fulfillment of the prophecies read every sabbath; even though these same rulers tried to stamp out their own savior, God was faithful. 

As Paul later said, "God has fulfilled this promise to our children in that He raised up Jesus".

Of course, they had all tried to get salvation the hard way -  keeping all those rules given by Moses. But the sins were now even more obvious. 

So Paul continues, "Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through Him forgiveness of sins is proclaimed to you, and through Him everyone who believes is freed from all things, from which you could not be freed through the Law of Moses..."

What joyous news. Jesus is the way to be free, indeed. Despite the incredible price, God had given His very best so we go free. God had kept His promise for all eternity. Let's daily praise His amazing love.
