"For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another." Galatians 5:13 . Who can you share the message of freedom with today? . ep. 47 | freedom | @gingercim
"It’s not just that my accountability partner listens to me so that I can get something off my chest, but she then turns around and she says the Gospel back to me. She is constantly calling me back to who I am and what I am called to do." -Ginger Ciminello⠀ ⠀ Tag someone below who has loved you enough to listen as you confess your sin and then point you back to the Gospel and remind you of who God has made you to be!⠀ ⠀ ep. 47 | freedom | @gingercim ⠀ ⠀ 📷: @laurenrund
"When we came to saving faith in Christ, confessing our great need of him and asking for forgiveness from the punishment we deserved, we were met with God’s unequivocal “yes.” Since Christ bore the penalty for our sins, we received freedom from that penalty for all sins past, present, and future. We were justified before God our judge because our penalty had been paid. Those who have been justified never need re-justifying. We can look back to the time of our justification and know that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Rom. 8:1–2). Our justification is behind us. It is a past occurrence. We were saved from sin’s penalty.⠀ ⠀ Now that the grace of God has been set upon us as a permanent seal (2 Cor. 1:20–22), we are being made new. We are being set free from the power of sin by the power of the Spirit... Our sanctification is ongoing. It is a slow-moving growth in holiness. We are being saved from sin’s power.⠀ ⠀ We will fight to grow in holiness our entire earthly lives. But when we have run the race and fought the good fight, we will enter into the presence of the Lord forever. We will be glorified. In his presence, our soul rest will, at last, be complete, as sin and its devastation will cease to assail us. There can be no evil in his presence. Though now we are surrounded on all sides by sinfulness, though now sin continues to cling to our hearts, on a day not too distant we will go to a place where sin is no more. In our glorification, we will, at last, be granted freedom from the very presence of sin. Our glorification is coming. It is the day we trade the persistent presence of sin for the perfect presence of the Lord. We will be saved from sin’s presence."⠀ ⠀ "How Salvation Brings Freedom" by Jen Wilkin⠀ ⠀ For more on this topic check out ep. 47 | freedom | @gingercim at the link in our profile! 📷: @jessiehshirley
"The first step toward freedom is confession - stepping from darkness into light. Anytime that I want to step back into that cage of believing a lie, the moment I choose to step out from hiding, I find grace waiting for me. I find freedom right there. Confessing my sin and claiming my need for God." -Ginger Ciminello . ep. 47 | freedom | @gingercim . 📷: @jillatogwe
On today’s episode of the Journeywomen podcast, I had a chance to chat with Ginger Ciminello about freedom! Ginger and I chat about what it looks like to walk in the freedom we have in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.⠀ ⠀ She said, “The Gospel is Jesus plus nothing equals salvation. When Satan wants to put on heavy burdens of the consequences of our sin or of the law and saying you have these 613 commands that you have to follow or you are not enough, Jesus instead comes and says, ‘Come to me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, learn from me, for I am humble in heart and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.’”⠀ ⠀ I confessed to Ginger that it’s a real struggle for me to walk freely, but after this conversation paired with the past two episodes we released on rest with Abigail Dodds and on fear with Matt Lantz, I am finding myself more readily embracing the rest and freedom we have in the Gospel when my fear is rightly oriented on God which leads to a great faith in Jesus. I hope you guys have the same experience after listening today! As always, you can find it at the link in our bio.⠀ ⠀ ep. 47 | freedom | @gingercim
If misplaced fear leads us to misplace our faith, and if a misplaced faith leads to idolatry, then a rightly oriented fear leads to a rightly oriented faith and that gives us courage to do what is necessary in times of need. . ep. 46 | fear | @matt_lantz
