Man's freedom
Man's universal desire is to
be free of restraints,. in the
political and social order, In
striving for freedom of the
spirit, however, it is a
paradox ,that the Gospel
encourages, us to pile up
obligations, live by many
inhibitions, and set restraints
upon our behavior. This is
true of all the major religions
of the world.
As the Bible puts it, "You
shall know the truth, and the
truth shall set•you free."
As a matter of fact, no man
is ever completely free,
because we are all con-

ditioned by the events and
experiences of our past, beset '
by prejudices and ignorance.
Where is• the truth that sets tis
free of all this? What is the
ultimate 'measure of our
freedom?
God is the power of our
future; only he is absolutely
free. Only by getting
"plugged" into God, so to
speak, can we be "certain of
our destiny. Only God is
absolutely 'free to use the
contingent events and the
passage of history, arid to
make them a part of v his
eternal design. ,�..
Precisely because the
object of ourthopes is unseen,
that is, God's Kingdom, only
he can lead us around corners
in our lives; past unseen traps
in our personality, and over
the ditches of our ignorance.
We read in Isaiah 55: "My
thoughts are not your
thoughts, nor are my ways
your ways, says, the Lord,
and in Luke 16: "What man
thinks important, God holds
in contempt."
No Christian can rationally
prove everything he holds
precious, any more than a
lover can explain everything
he treasurers about his
beloved. But both the believer
and the lover give evidence of
their values by the en-
thusiasm they bring to their

PEACE- AND ACCESS
"Therefore being justified by
faith, we have peace with God
through our Lord Jesus Christ; by,
whom also we have access . ."
(Rom. 5:1,2). .
"Being justified . we have
peace with God"! What a priceless
blessing! We believers are prone to
take this blessing altogether too
much for granted.
Since the day we. trusted Christ
and the burden of sin rolled away,
most of us have never had another
question about our eternal destiny,
and we have begun to take it for
granted. We fail -to appreciate suf-
ficiently what it means to be able
to arise in the 'morning; go about
our • business during the day and
give ourselves up to unconscious-
ness at night, always assured that
through our Lord's redemptive
work we have "peace with God"
and our eternal 'destiny is secure.
Surely this knowledge should over-
whelm our hearts with constant
gratitude and have a profound ef-
fect upon our daily,,conduct•

"Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our • } .%
Lord Jesus Christ" Romans 5, 1 ,
"peace with God" is our full and
free access into His presence; an-
other blessing of grace far too little
appreciated. Think of the ,wonder
Pf our free access to God; how He,
the Ruler of the Universe, invites us
to come confidently before His
"throne of grace" at our . conve-
nience—"in time of need."'
"Let us therefore come boldly
unto the throne of grace, that we \
may obtain mercy and find grace
to, help in time of need" (Hebrews
4:16). ,
Let us neer forget that this high
privilege was purchased for us by
the precious blood of .Christ, and
that having thus been purchased,
it is His will ltt at we believers avail
ourselves of "this grace," Could
there be greater proof of His love
for us?
"Having therefore, brethren,
boldness to enter into the holiest
by the blood of Jesus, •
"By a new and living way, which'
He hath consecrated fdr us, through
