You're Under Arrest!

Did you know that you are under arrest? The Fourth Amendment states, “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” In other words, the threshold for the arrest, search or seizure of one’s person or property must be met prior to law authorities attempting to do so. Paul says in this passage that we, as Christians, are under arrest, but for what reason? How will this truth shape our faith journeys in the New Year?
