Jesus stated, “He who the Son sets free is free!” John 8:36
The world defines freedom as a life without any restraint—“Do anything I want to do; say anything I want to say, without anybody telling me ‘Yes’ or ‘No.’” The cultural mindset in America when it comes to freedom can best be seen in a song written some time ago that stated, “I did it my way…” Yet, the Bible says the only way to true freedom is through Jesus: When Jesus, God’s only Son, sets you free, then you will be really free.
Real freedom is freedom from fear; it’s where you’re truly free from guilt, from worry, from bitterness, and from death. You’re free to quit pretending because you’re free to be yourself. How do you get to that place in life? By letting God love you! The apostle John reminds us, “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear.” 1 John 4:18
When you realize how much God loves you, you’ll begin to live in true freedom. In fact, you worship God when you recognize that “God is love” and that you are the primary focus of His love.
