Redeeming Myself…..Fallen from Grace
Redeeming Myself
As I was watching Michael Vick apology news conference yesterday he stated that he had found “Jesus” and that now he will “redeem” himself. Now I know what he means about redeeming his public image but I fear that Michael will now enter into a life of “redeeming” himself through “doing” instead of “being”. I would imagine that the Religious will now adopt him as a poster child of “GRACE”
They most likely will make him into what God can do! WHAT A CROCK!
Fallen from Grace
Immediately after the showing of the Vick apology the announcer stated how Vick had “FALLEN FROM GRACE”! WOW! Yes he has “fallen from grace” how do I know that? Just read, listen or watch the news conference where Vick says he will “redeem” himself and change in order to prove he is now a “good person” and child of God. So now most likely one well known national ministry will take him as the latest “Grace Example” and thus throw Michael into a life of trying to be good enough to be worthy of Redemption. I SO HOPE I AM WRONG! But if not the following is for Michael Vick.
TO: Michael Vick
If you are reading this blog there are some things I want you to know……..
You need not “redeem” yourself!
You only have to be who you are!
You are a Pearl of Great Price!
You ARE not will be PERFECT!
You WERE Perfect even in the dark days of Dog Fighting too!
Nothing you can do or say will cause God to love you more now that you no longer do those things!
Your future Good Works mean nothing in your Heavenly Redemption!
Your future Good Works will help some but they do not make you any more loved by God!
The Christian flesh peddlers (read -Nationally Know Ministries) will try and make you their “poster child” PLEASE RESIST!
But know this, even if you go through the hoops they set up for you in the end it is all for NOTHING!
Jesus did it ALL and your Redemption and Perfection was complete 2006 years ago! And the other GOOD NEWS is ALL of those who were your partners with the dogs are also Perfect and Complete because of The Finished Work of The Cross.
You see Michael it was for Freedom that Jesus set you FREE! You need not go through the hoops to prove yourself to Him.
You ARE Perfection!
In Perfection

I hope Vick is listening. Great advice Geo.
I hope he does run across this Cliff! But alas my thoughts are that he in his mind needs to do what the “Keepers of The Keys” say for him to do. My hope also is that at the end of it all he realizes trying to prove yourself NEVER works! The only thing that works is “being” yourself.
Peace

You said “Jesus did it ALL and your Redemption and Perfection was complete 2006 years ago!”
Isn’t it a shame all those “Nationally Know Ministries” never bothered to get the word out so that he COULD know that? Then again, why should they spread the word? They don’t believe it themselves! They only share a message of fear and bondage, and seek to add to their own power by manipulating people through guilt and shame. It is a very profitable scheme! Too bad it will all come crumbling down on them some day. Oh well, make your hay when the sun shines, as they say.

AMEN Bruce!
Not only that but they will more than likely make tons of money off of him and his story and in the end when he does not measure up they will quietly drop him and move on to the “next” example of Grace!
