Unchained!

Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel, for which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God’s word is not chained. --2 Tim.2:8-9 In its simplest form Paul described the Gospel as this: "Jesus Christ raised from the dead, descended from David." He explained the Gospel was why he was in chains, but God's Word is not in chains! Hallelujah!---They can lock man up, shut man up, turn a deaf ear to the preaching of the Gospel; but they can't stop the Gospel Truth, for it is unchained! I think back to Paul's statement in Romans "I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation..." Amen. Christian stand firm to God's Word in these days. We may come under fire and even be chained up, but God's Word is forever unchained!
