"Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age...." (Galations 1:3, 4ab)
Yes, Jesus delivers us from sin. But can you see with me today that the deliverance in the Blood of Jesus Christ is, "....from this present evil age," this present evil culture, this present world system, the life style of the humanist, aka, rebels against the Reign of King Jesus? And, this is all, as the rest of the text says, "....according to the will of our God and Father...."
Father, in Jesus' Name, help me to walk in deliverance, "....from this present evil age...." Amen.
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
