Higher Standard

When you are called into God's Kingdom, you are released from the law and are now operating under God's forgiving grace. But that doesn't mean that you can do away with the law and obeying God's commands because now you are placed at a higher standard by God's grace. Now that God is forming a relationship with you, there are some ways in which you as a Holy child of God are supposed to operate. You are not to be as one who is still lost and in the world's system, not that you are better than they, but now your eyes have been opened and more is required of you. You are now an example to all those in your world of how a child of God should truly be. Sin no longer has a foothold on you and you have been set free. But as the Apostle Paul said do not use that freedom to engage in debauchery. You are a child of the King and are to behave as such, no more backsliding for you, those days are over with. Now that is not to say you won't make mistakes, because you will, but you are no longer to let those little mistakes turn into habits and then turn into deep rooted sin again. So walk on in the authority that God has given you in this Earth. Living up to the higher standard that God has found you worthy to be placed in! God Bless!
