The Purpose of Freedom Pt. 28
In this continuation of our Galatians study, we delve deeper into the biblical understanding of freedom—not as license to do whatever we want, but as the God-given capacity to live as we were meant to live.
When God liberated Israel from Egypt, His first act wasn’t to remove all boundaries but to give His people His law at Mount Sinai. Similarly, Christ sets us free not for self-indulgence, but for worship and obedience. As we examine Galatians 5, we confront:
- Why true freedom requires discipline (just as musical skill requires practice)
- How God’s "rules" actually lead to flourishing
- The misquoted mandate of Exodus ("Let my people go... to worship Me")
- Why modern culture’s "do whatever you want" freedom fails to satisfy
Biblical freedom isn’t the absence of limits—it’s finding liberation within God’s good design. Join us as we explore how Christ’s gospel frees us from sin’s slavery and for joyful obedience.
🔹 Key Idea: "You were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another." (Galatians 5:13)
