For you, my brothers, were called to freedom; only do not let your freedom become an opportunity for the sinful nature (worldliness, selfishness), but through love serve and seek the best for one another. -Galatians 5:13
Through Christ and our salvation we are set free, we can experience freedom like never before. Sometimes in and through that freedom it can get confusing where that freedom can turn back into sin. If we start exercising our freedom in way that it causes us to drift away from God or it affects someone else’s journey to Jesus then we are no longer free but putting ourselves back into bondage. The simple way to gauge it is to ask yourself, “Is this bringing myself or someone else closer to Jesus….or is it causing me to drift away from Him?”
“True and absolute freedom is only found in the presence of God.” -A.W. Tozer
“Jesus isn’t trying to expose you to put shame on you. He’s trying to expose the sin that has its chains around you.” -Lysa TerKeurst
