January 23, 2013: To Bring Him Praise

3 gifts in Christ:

• freedom from condemnation. Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:1-2
• the fellowship of believers. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. Romans 12:4-5
• acceptance. Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. Romans 15:7
