Free People

My friends in Kansas City started a group, Free People. They started a website (http://wearefreepeople.org) and I was invited to start posting there. I encourage all of you to check it out.


Here is a little bit of info on Free People:

"Free People is an intentional community that exists to glorify God. We are not free persons but free people. We seek to be of one mind with no needy among us. We believe in working hand in hand with the church body as a whole to bring change to the society we have all helped to harm. Acts 4: 32 – 35

Christ died to set us free from sin and from a long list of laws and regulations. Christ came to set us free. Not free to do whatever we want because that would lead us back to slavery and to our selfish desires. Rather thanks to Christ we are now free and able to do what was impossible before, to live unselfishly. Those who appeal to their freedom so that they can have their own way or indulge their own desires are falling back into sin. But it is also wrong to put a burden of law keeping on Christians. We must stand against those who would enslave us with rules, methods, or special conditions for being saved or growing in Christ."
