Price of freedom
“No one who remains in him sins, and whoever sins has neither seen him nor recognized him.” (1 John 3: 6)
Jesus promises that if I remain in him, he frees me from sin. What does freeing from sin mean? It means freedom from the compulsion of sin; freedom from the domination of a sinful life style.
How do I remain in Christ? I remain in Christ through these means of grace:
· Eucharist
· Word of God
· Confession
· Prayer
· Examination of conscience
· Spiritual reading
These are the visible means of remaining in freedom. The price of freedom is investment in eternal vigilance.
