Summer SERMON SERIES – Freedom
|
June 7 – July 26, 2020
Many American Christians misunderstand freedom. We have a tendency to conflate the freedoms enshrined in our Constitution and Declaration of Independence, with the freedom of which Jesus spoke. The main freedom granted in our nation’s founding documents is freedom from governmental overreach. The freedom Jesus speaks about is freedom from sin: the freedom to be who God created us to be. The Apostle Paul described this as the freedom to choose to be slaves of God instead of slaves to sin.
