"When they arrived at Jerusalem, they were received by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all that God had done with them.  But some of the sect of the Pharisees who had believed stood up, saying, 'It is necessary to circumcise them and to direct them to observe the Law of Moses.'"

Some people will resist letting go of their baggage forever.

Freedom is an interesting event:

On the one hand, freedom allows you to live the way God intended for you to live.  Alive.  Full of Joy...

On the other hand, freedom takes us away from all that we have known in the past.  Freedom takes us out of our comfort zone.

What we do not understand, we often struggle against.  So it is with freedom.

So some people refuse to give up what hurts them because they know it so well.

The pharisees were the same way - they wanted to keep this hurt because they were familiar with it.

Today, it may be time to give up your baggage.

Just let go.
