Topic: Salvation

Notes:

- A sinner is a prisoner born in prison; has never known freedom; controlled by Satan- Unless the spirit of God invades, you will never be released- No human has ever been free; there is no such thing as free will; you always choose within the confines of what controls you- When Jesus sets you free you become His slave; either working for God or the devil- When first saved, you still think like a prisoner... you think God is interested in visible sins, then start comparing yourself to others which always lowers God’s standard... eventually we see it’s about the condition of the heart- Husbands and wives don’t preach to one another. Wives submit; husbands honor...- We have trouble leaving people alone and letting God work it out- Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling
