Bound as a prisoner of righteousness to Jesus. This is why we need to live in a way that is suitable and worthy of our rescue from sin, death, and Hell. How? Some ways include humility, kindness, taking a lot from others, and doing our best to be the one Body in Christ we have been called into. These go against our old nature, so take effort of choices to attain over a lifetime. Join me in pursuing these as we fail, fall, and get up over and over to press toward that prize!
Ephesians 4:1-3
1 I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called, 2 with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love, 3 endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
