Message of the Day: Freedom Is Not License To Do As We Please.
“For this is the will of God, that by doing good you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men – as free, yet not using liberty as a cloak for vice, but as bondservants of God.” (1 Peter 2:15-16, NKJV)
Good citizenship silences false accusations against believers of Christ. It will keep them away from criticism from their enemies. They also know how to make the proper use of their freedom.

Being free does not authorize rebellion against the government, but urges Christians to freely submit themselves to God and to human authorities. True liberty is the freedom to serve God not license to do as we please.
