To the Jews who had believed Him, Jesus said, “If you hold to My teaching, you are really My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s de-scendants and have never been slaves of anyone. How can You say that we shall be set free?” Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth,

everyone who sins is a slave to sin. Now a slave has no permanent place in the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”

In Him We’re Free From:

For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear torments us. The one who fears has not matured in love.

In Him We’re Free From:

Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.

In Him We’re Free From:

I have put these things in writing for you who have faith in the name of the Son of God, so that you may be certain that you have eternal life.

It is only when we are secure enough to die, that we are free enough to live!

In Him We’re Free From:

It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.

Galatians 5:1

In Him we have the freedom to give up our rights, but not the right to give up our freedom! Jack Exum
