“As I Am Except for These Chains” Acts 26:24-29

1. Free From the Bondage of Sin The one who commits sin is a slave of sin (John 8:31-36). Freedom from sin comes when we obey the gospel (Rom. 6:17-18). We are set free from the consequences of sin—spiritual death (Rom. 6:21-22).

2. Free From the Guilt of His Past Paul left a path of violence and destruction in his opposition to the Lord’s church (Acts 26:9-11; Gal. 1:13). In Christ these sins were no longer held against him (Heb. 8:12).

2. Free From the Guilt of His Past Paul could leave behind these haunting memories (Phil. 3:13-14). He was a new creation (2 Cor. 5:17). Paul was able to start over spiritually.

3. Free From Uncertainty God’s word gives… Light (Psa. 119:105). A goal to press toward (Phil. 3:14). A pattern to follow (Phil. 3:17). Our life meaning and purpose (Matt. 5:16).
