The Hidden Truth About Your Identity in Christ
John MacArthur (Thomas Nelson, 2010

 

Throughout the Bible, followers of Jesus are commanded to submit to Him as their King. They are told to obey and follow, faithfully and without hesitation. Every time Christians utter the word Lord, they make a subtle yet profound declaration—that God is their Master and that they belong to Him. What does it mean to be a Christian the way Jesus defined it? MacArthur says it all boils down to one word: Slave. “We have been bought with a price. We belong to Christ. We are His own possession.” This one forgotten word restores the Bible’s definition of true Christian freedom.
