The True Meaning of Freedom [Galatians 5:1-13]

Overview

Freedom is defined as "the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants, without restraints or hindrances. "But what is freedom in the Kingdom of God? In this passage, Paul reveals how freedom is secured by the Lord, and not by our works of the Law. And whilst we cannot secure freedom by ourselves, we can, and indeed must, stand in that freedom Jesus provides. Shifting from this freedom to turn to legalism will mean that we are severed from Christ, and His blessings. And most importantly in verse 13, Paul reveals freedom to be yielding ourselves as slaves for one another in love! So, freedom is living free from legalism, and from licentiousness, to serving one another in love. Freedom is not doing what I want in the flesh, but doing what God wants in the Spirit- to serve one another. That's the freedom that will make you happy in a thousand years! Discover what all this means, and may you find that true freedom in God.
