Walking In Liberty

He who the Son set free is free indeed. "Walking In Liberty"


Luke 4:17  And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:  18  "The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;  19  To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD."

Jesus came to set at liberty those who are oppressed; it is time to proclaim this is the acceptable year of the Lord!  Now is your time; this is the acceptable day of salvation.

John 8:31  Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. 32  "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."  The word that Jesus speaks bring freedom.

Jesus said “If you abide in My word you are My disciples indeed.  Jesus said “you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.  It is a specific truth that will set you free!

John 8:33  They answered Him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can you say, 'You will be made free'?"  34  Jesus answered them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.

Jesus said it was a specific truth that would set free; Jesus pointed the those who commits sin is a slave to sin!

John 8:35  "And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abides forever.  36  "Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

Slaves in the household can be sold out of the house; however a son abides forever.  There if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.  Jesus proclaimed truth that bring liberty and freedom; the Son will set you free.

Galatians 4:4  But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, 5  to redeem those who were under the law, that we might receive the adoption as sons. 

Jesus came to bring redemption to such a degree we be come adopted children of God.

Galatians 4:6  And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying out, "Abba, Father!"  7  Therefore you are no longer a slave but a son, and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

At faith in Jesus Christ the Spirit of His Son comes into your heart.  You now have the ability to cry out “Abba Father!”  No longer a slave to sin but we are now adopted children free from sin.

Romans 6:6  knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.  7  For he who has died has been freed from sin.

If we did not die from sin we did not get born again!  When you die to sin you are joined to Jesus!

Romans 6:8  Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him,  9  knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him.

Death no longer has dominion over Jesus!  If we died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him!

Romans 6:10  For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.  11  Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Jesus died to sin one time and it is good for all time!  Likewise, in the same way, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Colossians 3:12  Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13  bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.  14  But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

Because we are alive unto God we can walk in these grace commands.  Not the old dead you better behaved.  As the elect of God, holy and beloved we can walk in mercy, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering, forbearance, and forgiveness.  It comes from the love God shed abroad in your heart.

Galatians 5:1  Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

Learn to walk as the newly created being God has made us.  Quit behaving like mere men and live in the liberty Jesus Christ has provided; never get entangled with bondage again.
