Liberty, or freedom, is a concept that is highly valued in our culture.  On Independence Day, a day we celebrate national freedom, what we find in John 8:31-36 is that true freedom is only found through faith in Christ.

 

Jesus clearly shows us that we are slaves to sin, that slavery to sin leaves us outside of God’s family, and our initial reaction to sin is to deny we’re enslaved to it.  Christ alone offers us true freedom, that freedom comes to us as we respond to the truth, and we need to continue to live in light of the truth.

 

True freedom is only found through faith in Christ – declare your dependence.
