I died to the Law through the Law, so that I could live for God. I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. And the life that I now live in my body, I live by faith, indeed, by the faithfulness of God’s Son, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Galatians 2:19–20 (CEB)
As much as we use the word and concept of “freedom,” we have more laws on our books and prisoners in our jails to make us question what that really means in our society. In fact, from what Paul says, we have a very warped understanding of what true, Christian freedom really is and how it should be reveled and lived in!
“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.”
Let’s remember that within the freedom we have!
Scripture
- Galatians 5:1-25
