Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the
Lord is, there is liberty, emancipation from bondage, freedom. 2
Corinthians 3:17
Jesus came to this earth for one reason, to set us
free. This freedom is sometimes misunderstood. Being free doesn't
mean that we are free to do whatever we feel like doing, instead it means that
we have been set free from legalism so that we can follow the lead of the Holy
Spirit.
The legalistic mentality is what plagues our current society
and it says that everybody has to do exactly the same things, the same way, all
of the time. This conflicts with the Spirit of God who leads us as
individuals in unique and creative ways.
Jesus wants us to be free-free from sin, free from being
manipulated and controlled, free from trying to be better than others, free
from addictions and dependencies, and last but not least, free to be who you
are!
Be free!!!
