9Religion is the author of bondage. It speaks to human effort that is focused on an unattainable goal established by man. It keeps you tied to performance rather than to relationship with God. It keeps you stuck in the first century laws that were established to lead to Christ and refuses to allow you to rest in what He accomplished for us. Living in God's Amazing Grace was written to encourage its readers to know that when you have been born again, you have been emancipated from the ritualistic lifestyles that simply serve measure your spirituality and closeness to God. You are encouraged to embrace God's Amazing grace and begin to love much and live abundantly. God alone is the author and completer of your faith, the work has already been done. Remove the shackles and be free..
