PODCAST – The Law of Liberty
“But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does.”
James 1:25
The Law of Liberty
“There is a law in Christ Jesus as He enters into us that begins to lift us out of the law of sin and death. The ministration of the new covenant is one of the ministration of life. The law of liberty simply describes a life which lives and walks in the spirit. God does not abolish the law, but His purpose in Christ is to free us from our carnal striving to fulfill it, and lifts us up with wings like an eagle.
There is now an ability to overcome the law of sin and death through the greater law of the life in Christ Jesus. As we look to Christ and participate in that Life, being a doer of the works that are the outflow and fruit of His life and nature, Christ fulfills the law in us. THAT is the law of liberty that truly sets us free!”
” For freedom Christ has set us free…”
Galatians 5:1 (ESV)
