As the 4th of July is around the corner I think of our freedom in Christ as well as the freedoms in our country.
“At last we have freedom, for Christ has set us free! We must always cherish this truth and firmly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past…… At last we have freedom, for Christ has set us free! We must always cherish this truth and firmly refuse to go back into the bondage of our past.” Galatians 5:1 & 6 TPT
The Fourth of July is upon us. A time to celebrate our freedoms on earth as a country. Many lives were sacrificed for this to happen. And we became the USA. Now many sacrifice their lives so that we are able to live here on earth with many freedoms. However, we are seeing many of those freedoms being caught up in laws limiting what we hoped we would keep.
For Christ believing followers, there is a freedom that will last eternally. This freedom also required a sacrifice – but of only one, Jesus Christ. It is not a freedom to sin but to love with the love that was passed down to us through Christ. So as we celebrate this holiday of freedom, let us remember where our true freedom is and thank the Father above for what His love allows and provides for us.
