Seizure and Property

The word “seizure” once meant lawful ownership and peaceful possession in old English law, yet today it signifies confiscation by force the very opposite. This reversal mirrors a tragic spiritual decline: when Christ ceased to be King in men’s hearts, “every man did that which was right in his own eyes” (Judg. 21:25), and without godly restraint, power was used to rob rather than protect. Today we see the same drift: property owners face confiscatory taxes, crime, and hostility, while words of peace and love mask hatred and violence. No political reform can truly reverse this; only Christ can change hearts. He claims us as His absolute possession, bought with His blood: “Ye are not your own… ye are bought with a price” (1 Cor. 6:19–20). When we cease seizing our lives from Him and return ourselves and all things to His lordship, He will restore what is rightfully ours. #SeizureAndProperty #ChristIsLord #BoughtWithAPrice
