Many people believe the big lie that God is against personal freedom and the devil is for your freedom. Many young people are convinced that to be free they must leave the Lord’s ways.
Freedom and liberty are NOT terms that mean anything specific without a context. That is why some people promote some freedoms and some promote others. We usually use them to mean one of two dynamics. We use freedom as freedom TO DO something or freedom FROM something.
,God knows that the troubled state of our world is due to the misuse of our freedoms due to mankind’s fallen nature. But He does not take the freedoms away. As Christians He gives us a new nature, the Word, the workings of the Holy Spirit and the Ministry gifts to help us use our freedoms correctly. His work in the world is largely connected to the decisions and actions of His people. Use your liberty wisely.
If you believe your freedom rests with following the devil’s path, that use of freedom ends in bondage and death. BUT GOD wants you to be free to chose life, peace, joy, continued freedom. He wants you to be free from fear, addiction sickness, and more. He never puts a restriction before you except that it will protect you from sickness, poverty, bondage and other works of the devil…in other words keep you free.
THE LORD IS THE CHAMPION OF LIBERTY.
