Be Holy And Free!


'Be Holy And Free.'
Colossians 2:16-17.
a) Do not let anyone judge us about:-
1- What we eat.
2- What we drink.
3- How we observe Holy days.
4- New moon festival.
5- Worship services.
b) These were a shadow of things to come.
c) Now the reality has come, that reality is Christ.
(This QT urges me to Be Holy And Free)

c) 1 John 3:24. And keep the Lord’s Commandments.
(This Second one encourages me to Follow The Holy Spirit)

Thirdly, if those festivals are about us personally we need to ask God for Wisdom how to decline.
