Wars have been fought over it. Constitutions have been written to uphold it. Lives have been lived promoting it. But 'freedom' is still to be fully understood by many. What is freedom, anyway? What is it good for?
In Galatians 5:1, the Apostle Paul teaches “It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.” (New American Standard Bible ©1995)
Above all the other 'freedoms' that we're entitled to have as human beings, such as being a citizen of a nation or the freedom of speech and religion, etc… The one that truly FREES you from everything else, is that
one received when you ask the Lord Jesus Christ to be the Master and Savior of your life.
This freedom is felt down in your innermost life and there is no need to be further explained or affirmed to you by documents or lawyers. You know it when you have it because you feel free to live.
Thank God today for making available to you this freedom.
