“Stand In Christ’s Liberty”

Key Verse

  “For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another” (Galatians 5:13). 

Text — Galatians 5:1-13

Message

The Christian liberty is the freedom Christ has purchased for the children of God through His death of the Cross of Calvary. The devil fights this liberty in diverse ways. When young Christians fail to understand their liberty in Christ, the devil keeps reminding them about their past sins to create major stumbling blocks to their prayers. It is a common strategy of the devil to manipulate them and push them back into their shells. Once you are born again through genuine repentance, you have the liberty to serve God in truth and in spirit because God does not give us the spirit of fear but He gives us the Spirit of power and of a sound mind. 

When God has forgiven you, you are justified by faith and no longer bound to the yoke of religious ordinances.  However this liberty is not a guarantee to continue in sin believing the erroneous doctrine of eternal security. Apostle Paul warns: “for, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another” (Galatians 5:13).
