It is the freedom from the bondage of sin. It is no longer living under a condemnation that we are not good enough, hopeless or worthless. We already know that but in Jesus Christ, his forgiveness of sins that was extended to us, makes us whole in him. It is not about ourselves and trying to be good enough or holy enough because we simply can’t. It is living in obedience to his Word, allow the Holy Spirit to work inside us, and walking with Jesus as part and parcel of the journey of life.

Due to Christ’s work on the cross, we have freedom to serve and follow God’s commands. We have freedom, not give in to temptation, and we have freedom to go to God on our own without having a priest to do it for us. Jesus being crucified gave us that privilege. Jesus willingly became the sacrificial lamb of God, so that we could be freed from the law, experience the grace, mercy and peace of God, and accept the free gift of salvation so that we can let the Holy Spirit rest, rule and abide in us.

We experience freedom from many false beliefs and mindsets, that have inhibited our ability to actually walk the talk beyond religious rituals. I’ve finally begun to see the reality of Christ’s work in my heart and mind.
