Felon is a terrible word in our world  today .According to society it is
someone who has committed (or been legally convicted of) a crime .  Felon can carry stiff hard penalties in a persons life ,Some of those penalties include  being ousted from society ,imprisoned for years, not being given a chance for any job ,license revoked ,looked down on by society,  A person with no future and no hope .  Having heads turned away from you as you don't even exist to some . No matter the crime if felon shows up on your record or if you are labeled a felon some  people will  look at you as a different person . A lower class or a person to stay away from .

The good news is you can be a felon and God loves you  as much as he did before you were labeled a felon  by society . He gave his only begotten son as a sacrifice to cover all your sin . What is sin ? (1 John 3:4) Everyone who practices sin also practices lawlessness; and sin is lawlessness.

 More good news :God has given His commandments and laws to man to govern the way man lives. These laws are for the good of all and are meant to preserve the gift of life which God has given. When man obeys God's law there is liberty and freedom to enjoy the gift of life with others without fear of future problems.

Does this mean you won't ever have trouble ? The answer is no . "We all have trouble in this life on earth"  but God can see you through as you learn to look to him for everything .

 Yes you can be restored  and be a felon ! (Psalms 19:7) The law of the LORD is perfect, restoring the soul.

Yes you can be set free ! John 8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
John 8:36  also tells us :If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.  Free from addictions ,free from lawlesness(sin) free from the prison bars that have been set around your very soul by  wrong  choices made  in life. By now you may be asking a few questions .

How can I get this freedom ? How much does it cost ?What do I need to do  for this freedom ?  If you want this freedom it cost absolutey nothing !  That's right!...  not even a penny! it cost nothing ! and all you have to do is accept the freedom . Nothing is required to be done and nothing can be done in works for this freedom .

Let me explain : John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life". key word "whosoever " meaning anyone that will believe  in him will have everlasting life in heaven .

Romans 6:23 "For the wages of sin (lawlesness) is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord".Note: Gift  the  meaning of (gift)?  according to websters dictionary is : "Something voluntarily transferred by one person to another without compensation"  meaning God gave his only son  Jesus  (John 3:16) as a  gift of sacrifice  for our sins  that whosoever   (anyone) that believes  on him will have everlasting life just for accepting the gift  Jesus  his only begotten son  that he has given to cover our sins or lawlesness   and we don't have to pay anything for this gift .
 
How can you get this freedom ? By simply accepting God's gift and it's free! cost nothing! You can't work for it  you can't pay for it  all you have to do is be willing to accept God's gift it's really that simple .  Your gift has already been paid for By God and is waiting for you to accept . The Gift of Salvation
