SNT 0964 The Lord’s Freeman
The Lord’s Freeman Because of the price Jesus Christ paid for us all, we became totally free – the Lord’s freeman.

But I'm sure with the Corps it's going to be developed within the next several weeks. Tonight I'd like to share something about the Lord's freeman. I forget when I first used the phrase-; among our people that- sort of caught on when I said you are born to live; you are born again to serve. In our first birth we received our natural life and that natural life will be ours for all the years that we live. But in the second birth we received Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior and we received . eternal life. Eternal life is for all the years we live, and that's eternal. The natural life, sixty, seventy, eighty, I don't know how many years, but that's the end of it. But if you have eternal life, if you're born again, you will have it throughout all eternity, in my mind it's absolute stupidity for any man to remain just a natural man when eternal life is available to all men. (Example of Justin Wilson) This matter of the Lord's freeman is not just to. be born to live. But if you were not born to live you could not be born again. The second birth is primarily a birth to serve. John 3:1-4 John 3:5 "born of water" - first birth, natural birth "of the spirit" - second birth John 3 ». 6 "that which is.born of the flesh is flesh" - That's the natural man. It will always be flesh. "That which is born of the spirit" will always be spirit. The first is natural; the second is eternal life. John 3:7-12 John 3:13 "which is in heaven" - Scratched in all

than light because their deeds are evil, and that's why they do not desire to be born again. A man must be born again in order to have eternal life.. This becomes singularly significant because in our day and in our culture many people are teaching that this is all there is to life. So cheat, do anything you want to because when your life is over with, that's all that is to it. I do not believe that. I. believe it's a lie from the pit of hell. I believe all that is fashioned by the Adversary because the Word of God teaches that there is a God and there is His son, Jesus Christ, and that every man is going to be resurrected or raised and all men are going to appear before God. I believe .the Bible is the truth. This is why I believe that every man should be born again, and it's absolutely stupidity on the part of a natural man just to remain a natural man when eternal life is made availab
