Freedom

“regardless of whatever else it may be, the Bible makes it clear that the source of freedom is Christ, that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, And that to put faith in Christ is to know the transforming power of freedom. Political freedom matters. Religious freedom matters. National freedom matters to all of us. But the greatest freedom is the freedom that comes when we find our faith and our freedom in Christ.”

“we've rejoiced in the fact that we have privileges of freedom here in this country that are not experienced in other parts of the world. And how we are supposed to be grateful for these things, and then knowing that should propel us to actually use those freedoms as God has called us to. And so we've talked about the price of freedom, the pathway of freedom, the principles of freedom, the privileges of freedom. Last week, the protection of freedom as Pastor Andrew walked through judges and challenged us to not be a people who failed”

“is this, what are we doing with our freedom? What are we doing with our freedom? And so today I want to take time and continue this series that we've been calling Foundations of Freedom. And I want us to talk a little bit about the privileges of freedom, the privileges of freedom. Because freedom for us is not an indulgence. It is not even a destination. Freedom for us is to be a platform”

“of freedom. The protection of freedom. It was one of our nation's founding fathers who once said this, the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. The price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Freedom cannot be permanently secured, and it must always be guarded and taught and renewed and defended in every generation. Freedom, if it is to exist and to last, whether it's at the level”

“The cry freedom only came from one place. That's from the cross. Secondly today, I not only want you to see that Christ came to purchase freedom for us, But the Holy Spirit is who empowers us to live in freedom. The freedom that we need and long for in life is not the American spirit of freedom. It is the Holy Spirit of freedom.”

“you're going to be held accountable for that car. You're going to pay for that car. And I'm telling you today, God gives you freedom. And thank God in America we have freedom. But if we abuse that freedom and we somehow neglect what is needed to enjoy that freedom, there will be a day when our freedom becomes our judgment. America is not ours to worship or to abuse,”
