"He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins." Just as God rescued his people from slavery in Egypt under the old covenant, He has now delivered us from the domain of darkness, that is, from the realm of Satan and the powers of evil. The moral dilemma each of us must confront is not how sinful we are but whose side we are on. You are either a citizen of the evil kingdom or a citizen of God's Kingdom (unfortunately, the default is the evil kingdom). While this conflict between good and evil is of cosmic proportions, its legal resolution is individually transacted when one transfers citizenship from the evil kingdom to God’s Kingdom as a result of God's redemption and the forgiveness of one's sins through God's Son, Jesus. There is no middle-of-the-road, no opting out, no riding-the-fence in the matter of your eternal destination. Your citizenship is either in the evil kingdom or God's kingdom. Don't put Kingdom citizenship off any longer. Swear allegiance to Jesus and become a citizen of God's Kingdom today!!
