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

I’ve never fully understood this. I tend to be legalistic and I’ve always gotten bogged down by the fact that being set free doesn’t mean being set free to live however I want. The Law is still relevant but it’s learning to live it out as Jesus did – through the lens of love, not legalism. So I continue to learn what this looks like in my life and how to share it out in the world.

Because Jesus died for me and rose again in power that I truly can’t even wrap my head around my heart tells me that I am free from worry, free from fear, free from insecurities of the the world’s view of me. I am free to run after Jesus – free to run from all my preconceived notions of who and what I am to be, and run into His loving acceptance of who He has made me to be… FREE

Wow I really like how you explain this. It’s truly an extraordinary thing!

The freedom we have as a result of the finished work of Christ is perfect. We are free from the bondage of our sins and we are free from the curse of the law. Our freedom gives us an abundant opportunity to have a very smooth relationship with our Lord Jesus and our heavenly father and to love our neighbors.

I am free from the punishment and guilt of the sins I commit and I can walk in newness of life with Him.

As Paul stated, I too am a prisoner of Christ – enjoying freedom, while sharing the Good News with everyone I meet.
