The highest freedom is the freedom from evil, not the freedom of doing evil.
Freedom
Christine Caine
Until you make what Jesus did FOR you bigger than what anyone has done TO you, you will not be free.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon
In the Red Sea of His own blood, our Redeemer has drowned the Pharaoh of our sins!
Gordon D Fee
Christian conduct is not predicated on whether I have the right to do something, but whether my conduct is helpful to those about me.
Erwin Raphael McManus
Jesus describes Himself as a door, a gate, a portal. In other words, an escape hatch. He has come to free us from a meaningless existence and liberate us to a life filled with adventure. He has come to lead us out of the mundane and into the extraordinary. Strangely enough we find it hard to trust Him, while all the time He has been trying to lead us out of the dark dungeons we have created for ourselves and let us run free in the light of day. When we come to Him, he translates us into an entirely new realm of living. His promise is that in Him we will find the life that our hearts have always longed for. Jesus was crucified as a criminal, but what His accusers didn’t know was that He was planning and fulfilling history’s most extraordinary prison break.
Arthur Tappan (A. T.) Pierson
The Bible is the greatest traveller in the world. It penetrates to every country, civilized and uncivilized. It is seen in the royal palace and the humble cottage. It is the friend of Emperors and beggars. It is read by the light of the dim candle amid Artic snows. It is read under the glare of the equatorial sun. It is read in city and country, amid the crowds and solitude. Wherever its’ message is received, it frees the mind from bondage and fills the heart with gladness.
Dann Farrelly
Freedom is not free—it cost God the death of His Son. This truth motivates us to protect and value our freedom for the precious gift that it is. As God’s children, servants, and friends, we are not free to do whatever we want; rather, we moderate our freedom to protect our connection with Him and with one another.

No matter what evil you have experienced in the past, that experience should not hold you hostage for the rest of your life.
Dann Farrelly
Christ died to set us free from sin, death, fear, and shame in order to establish us in freedom so we can live and love as God’s glorious children. Freedom is very personal, but it is not self-centered. We have been given freedom so we may present ourselves to the Lord as a willing sacrifice, surrendered and ready to serve.
