1 | Freedom | 1 Cor 6:12 | lionheart | 155580 | ||
Freedom is on the lips of many today,but do they truly know what it means. Is freedom the ability to do as we please or is it the ability to heed Gods call on our lives and act in a godly manner where his call to us is concerned? In Christ, lionheart |

2 | Freedom | 1 Cor 6:12 | jlhetrick | 155581 | ||
Freedom is in fact the "ability to do as we please", otherwise it would not be freedom. Heeding Gods call on our lives and acting in a Godly manner is a choice that we make and then live out through His help and power. 1Co 6:12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. Another good question to ask is: What happens to freedom when it is practiced without acknowledging God and without responsibility? A great answer is a good look at today's united states in light of it's origin and history. We (the USA) have evolved from a people who's laws establish and protect freedom to a people who's notion of freedom, that is, the irresponsible declaration and practice of freedom establishes and sustains the law. Freedom comes from and by God. It is only through Him that we have any freedoms at all. Joh 19:10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee? Joh 19:11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above:..." So when we take God out of the equation (so to speak) what is left is not freedom; it is rebellion and anarchy. Jeff |
