Freedom! To those in spiritual bondage this is a wonderful word! But not only word, but a wonderful deed to know Him who “sets the captives free.” The cross and resurrection Of The LORD Jesus the only avenue to such liberation from the bondage to sin, satan, and self. It is good to remind ourselves of Him and what He has set us free from but also what He has set us free…TO! Consider these verses and celebrate Him and live not as those who are enslaved but those who are free to know Him, experience His love and live out a life of freedom to love Him and others!

2.- FREEDOM…”It is for FREEDOM that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.”-( Gal 5:1)
3.- FREEDOM…”For you have been called to live in FREEDOM, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, USE YOUR FREEDOM to serve one another in love.”-( Gal 5:13)
4.- FREEDOM…”Live as people who are FREE, not using your FREEDOM as a cover-up for evil, BUT living as servants of God. Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God,”-( 1 Peter 2:16-17)
Freedom … Not to live independent but in dependence upon God and the ability to Obey His Word and Courage to Share it;
“I will always obey your law, for ever and ever. I will walk about in freedom,
for I have sought out your precepts. I will speak of your statutes before kings
and will not be put to shame”- {Psalm 119;44-46}.
