FREEDOM AND LIBERTY

THE BAPTIST CONFESSION OF FAITH SAYS ABOUT OUR FREEDOM

The liberty which Christ has purchased for believers under the Gospel, lies in their freedom from the guilt of sin and the condemning wrath of God, from the rigours and curse of the law, and in their deliverance from this present evil world, from bondage to Satan, from dominion of sin, from the harm of afflictions, from the fear and sting of death, from the victory of the grave, and from everlasting damnation. 

Our freedoms today that we enjoy as a country were purchased by the blood of our martyrs, our heroes, and the present soldiers who stand in the line to defend our rights.  Without them, we would have been under the Spaniards, or Americans, or Japanese.  Without our soldiers today, we would have been under Communist rule or Terrorist oppression.

Our spiritual freedom were also bought with a great price.  The blood of the man Christ Jesus.  He came down to earth to suffer and die so that we can be free from sin.  The guilt of sin, the punishment of sin, the damnation of sin, the curse of sin, and all things which are not good for our souls.

Glory to God our Father and to His Son our Lord Jesus Christ


Gal_3:13  Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
