Living in Freedom

Jesus promised his followers that in him they would find true freedom and life. Jesus said: “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full” (John 10:10). And the Apostle Paul wrote: “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free” (Galatians 1:5). The freedom Jesus brought was unlike anything known before. It was freedom from sin. Freedom from sickness. Freedom from death. Through his sacrificial death on the cross, Jesus brought resurrection and life into the world. Jesus IS resurrection and life. He is the true light that overpowers the darkness. In Jesus alone can true freedom be found. It is a freedom that comes only through faith in Jesus and the forgiveness of our sins. As God’s children, we have been re-born to live in freedom — and freedom is our destiny. Have you experienced God’s freedom in your life? It is yours for the asking.
