A blessing comes from adhering to the principles of God and alining with his righteousness. But true freedom only comes from accepting the salvation which is offered to us through Jesus.
It’s wonderful to live in the blessing of God. But if we are at the same time rejecting him as a good, loving father who wants to teach us his ways so we can walk in unity with Creation, the Creator, and each other… then we are preparing a bleak future for ourselves.
