Explain, in your own words, the freedom we have as a result of Christ’s work and how that impacts your life.

The freedom we get from Christ is not living in bondage, the ability to walk freely knowing He is there and helping us overcome adversity, and grow. Praise be to God.

I have the freedom to approach God in grace according to His power within me and the willingness to obey Him out of love. Keeping love forefront of my mind every day enables me to treat others with kindness and empathy regardless of their behavior (bad or good) towards me. I was always taught freedom by my parents as I grew up (African American), however, when I started learning about God’s freedom as a believer, it emphasized how God has given me a teacher, the Holy Spirit, to guide me, teach me, show me the way, and help me to know that the Fruit of the Spirit is ingrained within my heart by Jesus Christ who died for my sins. Fear, worry, anxiety, and sinful desires have vanished and my focus is strength, power, righteousness, and love which dominates because of the freedom that Jesus Christ has bestowed upon my life dying for my sins and giving me eternal life.

My favorite is the freedom from fear – fear of death, fear of unexpected or undesirable circumstances, etc. In my life, I can trust God instead of being fearful.
-
Christ died to set me free from any bondage from Satan, the world and sin. I am now free to serve the Lord and to live according to His will for my life. I am no longer a slave of sin neither of Satan. I am a child of God who is free to love others and be victorious over sin.

We are free from the law and to live the life that God has created us for. We are free to do what He has called us to.
