Sacrifice and Independence day

We are in the month of August and in Independence Day fever but let us just Ponder on the word sacrifice.An Army of a particular Country can sacrifice his life only for the Country he represents and obviously not for the Country that you are fighting war with or for the entire world.A husband,wife or Children can at the max sacrifice their lives for their family,society or a country and not for the entire world.So likewise a sportsman,businessman and so on.But this morning I want to focus on sacrifice of Jesus who sacrificed his life for entire human race,Countries,generation irrespective of his caste, creed,race or religion.The Bible says in Luke 4:18 "The spirit of Lord is upon me(Jesus) and I have come to set the captives free".The Book of John in Bible verse 8:32 says that "you shall know the truth and the truth will set you free".We as humans are captivated or bound by sin in the form of adultery,fornication,drukneness,orgies,
murder,jealousy,lie,hatred,dissensions,factions,covetousness,idolatory,pride,anger, corruption,drunkeness and many more.The good news is that Jesus can set you/liberate you free from all this bondage of sin if you ask him to come into his life and seek forgiveness for our sins.Jesus Loves you.#Happy #Independence #month.
