b'Chain Or Stain Rev 1:1-5\\xa0 #Nightlight #RTTBROS\\nThe Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand. John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, Rev. 1:1-5 \\n\\n" It is grace that endures. The benediction is addressed to the One who loves us and who keeps on loving us. It is also grace that emancipates: "Unto him that ... washed us from our sins." Some versions read "loosed us from our sins." Dean Alford says there is a difference of only one letter between the two readings in the original. If we read: "Unto him that ... washed us from our sins," then sin is regarded as a stain. If we read: "Unto him that ... loosed us from our sins," then sin is regarded as a chain. Of course, it is both." John Phillips \\nSin is a Burden We Cannot Bear\\n\\n"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23 KJV)\\n\\nSin is a stain on our lives that we cannot wash away on our own. No matter how good we try to be, we still fall short of God\'s perfect glory. Sin separates us from our holy Creator. But even more than a stain, sin is a chain that binds us. It is a trap we cannot escape by our own efforts. Sin enslaves us and leads us down destructive paths.\\n\\nBut praise God, He has washed us clean and loosed us from the chains of sin through Jesus Christ! "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." (1 John 1:7 KJV) No stain is too dark for the blood of Jesus. No chain is too strong for Him to break.\\n\\nLet us rejoice today that we have been freed from sin\'s stains and chains by the amazing grace of our Lord. Though we were once slaves to sin, we have been set free and are now slaves to righteousness!\\n\\n"But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life." (Romans 6:22 KJV\\n\\nOur Podcast, Blog and YouTube Links\\nhttps://linktr.ee/rttbros\\n\\nBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.\\n\\nRSS feed https://anchor.fm/s/127be410/podcast/rss\\n\\nhttps://linktr.ee/rttbros'
