Life In The Spirit, Part 2: Set Me Free

When we become Christians we sometimes set rules and guidelines and forget about God’s love. The love we should have for our families. So, are you a Christian or a Christ Follower?


GAL 3:22-25      Prisoners
You know the law does not set you free. It leads you to Christ who is the only one who can set you free.


GAL 5:1      Freedom
(Burdened with guilt) By doing it on your own, the self mentality that doesn’t except help.
Following Rules: Following the laws and inflicting guilt on others for not following all the commandments.
Performance Based: Putting you above others. “I follow most of them so I am better than you”


2 COR 3:7-15      Spirit of Freedom
Burdened by the Commandments and the laws of the church with “thou shalt not, you’re a failure, your stupid, you could never get any better” is of this world not Gods. In Gods eyes you are free, you can do anything, you can change, and you’re accepted for who you are. This is the love of God as he sees you in his glory.


ROM 8:1-2      Set Me Free
There is no condemnation in Christ because the Spirit of the law set you free. Gods Spirit.
