"Jesus is the reason that we can walk our journey of faith with this mindset (Colossians 3:1) and not be burdened by a religious mindset of spiritual debt (Galatians 5:1). Christ has paid for everything. As far as God is concerned, all debts owed to Him have been paid. Because of this, we can have peace before Him. When we feel that we still owe God, we cannot rest in His presence. Instead, we forever try to pay off our debt to Him through spiritual disciplines, and in the process fail miserably to live up to our own religious standards.
In Christ you can be assured God is not relating to you based on how much you pray or read your Bible. He is not counting how many people you share your faith with, nor how much money you give away. Naturally in our journey of faith we may do these things, however they are not an obligation or God's measuring stick regarding your spiritual condition. They are simply a response to the reality of our salvation." By Mick Mooney
