WHAT IS BEHIND DOOR NUMBER TWO?

Today, we will look at door number two. “What is behind Door Two?” Door of Liberty!”
“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). This is part of the story that is about the Samaritan women who met Jesus as He started north for Galilee. I would like to say this before we look at Door number Two. The Jews avoided Samaria because there was longstanding hatred between the Jews and the Samaritans. The reason was that the Samaritans were a mixed race, part Jew and part Gentile.
Now, let us look at Door number Two “Blessing of Liberty!”
Since we already read John 4:24 before let’s look at this scripture. The first thing we see is that “ God is a spirit; that is one reason we should worship Him in spirit and in truth. This means that God is without a body. “Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have” (Luke 24:39). But Jesus who is God’s Son came from heaven to reveal the Father God to us.
Since God is a spirit, He is everywhere. It doesn’t matter where we worship, but it does matter how we worship God. I can worship God here in an office; He is there. I can worship God in my car; he is there. I can worship God at Church He is there. The Bible tells us, “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them” (Matthew 18:20).
There are people who will say, “how dare you teach people about the liberty we have in Christ, lest it will end up in religious anarchy.”
Let me say this, if the Holy Spirit told Paul to write this, then we should be preaching and teaching this doctrine of Christian liberty through grace. It is not a dangerous doctrine.
“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made me free, be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage” (Galatians 5:1). This tells me that we were to be firm and unyielding in maintaining this great principle of Christian liberty. We have been freed from the bondage of rites and ceremonies and we should not yield to them again. Don’t put that old yoke, on you again, because it is a yoke of bondage you have been set free by the blood of Jesus. He died once for that bondage. We are not under the Law, but under grace. “for sin shall not have dominion over you; for ye are not under the law, but under grace” (Romans 8:3). This does not mean that we are out laws and rebels. It simply means that we no longer need us in God’s will because we have the internal leading of the Holy Spirit of God.”
