Spirit of Liberty in Christ

"Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty." (2 Corinthians 3: 17)

The Spirit of God speaks of Jesus all the time:

"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:" (John 15: 26)

The Spirit of Truth which testifies of Jesus:

"For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ." (JOhn 1: 17)

Grace and truth are one, and they are one in Jesus.

This truth grants us liberty:

"31Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; 32And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8: 31-32)

You shall know that truth, and the truth will set you free. The Holy Spirit delivers to us this Truth, the Man and the Glory Jesus Christ:

Without Jesus, there is no liberty:


"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." (John 8: 36)

There is no liberty without Christ Jesus.

Finally, what is the Spirit of Liberty for:

"For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another." (Galatians 5: 13)

On this Fourth of July, rest in the Truth who sets You free.
