Thoughts from the Pew

Are we not so blessed to have the privilege to worship God freely in our country? This is one of those things that we don't really think about as we are rushing out the door just trying to make it to church on time.
For the past few weeks our pastor has been preaching on Biblical change. All of the sermons have been wonderful and hard hitting, but today was even more so. How long have I been satisfied with only a limited gospel? Why do I not see that the gospel should encompass my entire life? Everyday I need to remind myself that I am dead to sin and alive in Christ. I need not live like sin is governing my life.
Yes, the best way to do this is to study the Word everyday. For me, personally though, I need to be memorizing the Word. How can I fight the daily battle against sin unless I am armed with the right weapons?
