Emancipation

What faith shall I place in man? In Myself. I know my heart and fortunately am willing to see and declare the wickedness therein. Salvation from death is the realization that sin is what caused our death. Remaining in sin is assured death. Therefore any rational, aware, enlightened man sees in himself the desire for ruin and turns away, known as repentance.

From what I am repenting, the enemy’s control over my life in deception, suggestion and lure to commit the same sins I myself have maintained? This life is my responsibility and that acknowledgement demands either I accept continuance in this faith in myself or desperately seek any avenue toward redemption and release from this abomination of a life lived foolishly.

Tell me, what is your boulevard to freedom from this self-perpetuated and inclined dedication to my own destruction? What is the imaginary or the vain? Who holds the keys to my own pursuits adhering to an immolation of all for which I quest? You would have me look to magic or to science in my rational pursuit of a way our of perpetual labyrinthine discovery.

Tell me what man made or crafted road leads to the eradication or cleansing of my sin? Trial by reincarnation of a thousand lifetimes does not free me but instead makes me worthy of an end to this travesty. No one declares the only path to a situation mandated and fed by my own volition as the self-provided freedom to a problem I could not conquer in a lifetime. That freedom has to come with aid from Divine intervention.

That promise of freedom and rebirth is only found and repeated on one path to emancipation, the Lord Jesus Christ and the Grace received by gift. If you wish for me to follow another path, where is the promise but in service to the darkness I have already admitted in my own heart. Frailty is not strength, buy the realization of my own inadequacy to free myself from that which take my life is perhaps the greatest surrendering frailty found in salvation.

I cannot hope to be free without acknowledging God as the source, the answer, the Way. In that acknowledgement I find the keys to hell, death and the permanent escape from sin by rebirth of a seed beyond the original fault of denying the perfection of creation. Eve’s wanting more opened the door to deception. Adam’s wanting it his way acknowledged his lack of Love and Respect/reverence of God Almighty.

He may only save me if I acknowledge the need for salvation. That salvation being from my own thinking or lack thereof. I stepped into darkness with the rest of humanity, a slave to the Father of Lies in that shadow of the man I was meant in creation. Now I follow the image of the Divine, born again to a new life only found in the seed of Christ’s suffering on Calvary’s Cross. I will never put faith in man again, but in the Twain man who gave all that I may be free from my own vain imagination. In Jesus’ name.
