Because of Jesus we are free from both the penalty of sin (death) and the power of sin. Through the Holy Spirit, that Jesus has promised to send us, we have the power to keep all of God"s commandments, which is why we observe the seventh-day Sabbath (Saturday). Moreover, through the Holy Spirit we have the grace to love and minister to our fellow man.
