Freedom for the Captives
John 10:10
I came so they can have real and eternal life, more and better life than they ever dreamed of.
We recently read about Franklin Graham having the opportunity to proclaim the liberating Gospel of Christ to thousands of inmates at the Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola…
Graham spoke of Christ’s redeeming love to almost 2,200 inmates who gathered in the stands of the famous Angola Prison Rodeo Arena along with more than 1,000 residents from nearby parishes.
“God knows all about prisons,” Graham said. “Joseph was in prison, as was the Apostle Paul, and Peter. He knows exactly what you are here for, but He is willing to forgive you of your sin, no matter what you may have done. We all deserve death and hell, but God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to rescue us.
“If you call on God in this prison today, He will hear your prayer, cleanse you from your sin, and give you a new beginning. You can be set free from the prison of sin through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.”
