The Perfect Law of Liberty

Day. Was the Independence Day, right? And somebody told me while I heard a sermon somebody talked about Jesus, saving people free and and I thought, well yeah, that's going to be a text or use does Independence Day. So she was kind of surprised but I was surprised but you know I was a graduate high school in the bicentennial year of our country 1976 and 45 years. Right? 1706 write 24 + 200. + 21 is 245 right after myself and brother twins, graduates in five years, the 250th anniversary. Okay. Now, you know, the history behind our nation. Let me tell you about that. I didn't talk about that. and so, This was the anniversary of the signing of declaration independence, right? It was probably not sign on July 4th but after the function of a second but 56 people signed a document, it was conceived primarily by Thomas Jefferson sign bites at 6 told him and including Benjamin Franklin John Adams Etc. And from the beginning part of the Declaration of Independence, are these words in and you know, them to be self-evident that all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Now when that was written, not it did apply to all men. They didn't treat the slaves and tied to the slaves so they were grossly wrong, not biblical, then apply to the indigenous, people American Indians and others that lived in that in a country show. They were not when on a perfect document, they were not perfect man. In that day and age. There was a lot of slavery in such and so that is not a good part of our history, but we move on, in my opinion, we move on and we try to rectify the problem.

But we talked about freedom because, you know, America will be like to say that. We are free men, right? And we like to express that to my Bill of Rights, right? Free on the expression, right? That's the First Amendment right? And the phrase, not good being bondage, right? But when I want, you think now, because Freedom comes responsibility, right? Because what if Different people's freedoms, contradict another person's Freedom who win. So we have to be very aware of other people's freedoms. So we don't Trump other people's freedoms as we observe our own, okay? And so Freedom should not be selfish, should not be a pound on somebody and it should be done with the idea that everyone has the prerogative and the god-given privilege of being free connections, okay? Now in the Lord Jesus Christ, our freedom goes to a much higher level than human freedom is concerned, right? And even just tell my freedom itself for the spiritual None of us are really free it in innocence, right with what we all have our are tied to something with her. It's fear of man, right, right. I was talking some people just a minute ago and they make one way in a certain group of people and other way when there's no group of people and show, there are a bunch of right about now but we're all in this week, There's purepressure their Conformity, there's fear of all sorts of things, right? And when were in our form on my homies we might feel very well might feel very free, right? But we were, we're we're checking to account. OK. Google take me to account we might feel a little bit less Liberty. Is that true? Okay, so freedom is, you know, is relative, right? We talked about you don't North Korea communist China, that they're not free and because government is going to harass them in prison and put them in the right. And we have much more freedom in America, but it's also still runs her. We can't, we can't say fire in the movie theater, right? That's against the law, right relative? Okay, but it turns out that the Bible teaches them from a spiritual Freedom. Know, is that we are all a slave all is Christian, secluded or slate? What's up with that? Okay. And so, I want your turn to be the first pause, Romans 6:16.

and Apostle Paul was telling the Romans know you not Doctor Who healed yourself service show Bay. Disturbance, you are to Hula Bay weather of sin, unto death, or obedience unto righteousness. You were the servants are saying he's going to question. You were the service that sends you have a paid from the heart that form of doctor. What doctor is at the gospel of Christ? You see, they obeyed the gospel of Christ, which was delivered to you. That's what that sounds familiar, right? I did run to that, which he talked about the gospel, that which I first Deliverance you right then, cries. According to scripture, in 1st Corinthians chapter 13, right vs 2 and 3. So he's talking about the doctor of Christ. It will be from the heart. Something we just agree with you. Mine will be with the heart. Okay, being done, made free from sin. You became the Servants of righteousness by which of the back to verse 16 or rather. I believe, it's Where, where is it now?

Yeah, obeyed from the heart. In other words, this is an ongoing process right now. Look up now. I said that every one of us are servants. if we're Christian wear a service to righteousness, we should be Servants of righteousness. But do we have continually Obey from the heart you're saying right? Or do we also are we also service of sin and will find out in just a minute that we do have a part of us that were servants to send and that's why it's supposed to fall off and tells us that we hit me up to crucify our flesh with a sections and lost you something. We have that old man that we got to put off and then I would have put on. It's a constant struggle. So we have to think about, who are we serving? Are we serving the loss of our hearts are we serving the devil, who's the father of our life or are we serving righteousness? The Lord, Jesus Christ. Do want to please him. How are you holding ourselves or our being from the heart. The continuous process do all of us are service at 1 form another but how, and what capacity are we serving, okay? Know everyone who is a stripping it's because we're under some kind of law, right? There's a law that tells us what to do, okay? That's enough stress going to talk about and that is The second lesson is john-117 after bicep, right? Okay.

To cancel all that.

Flippers are Servants of sin. Paul said that, you came out of that, you were costumes. You don't have those, you'll have to follow the dictates of your lustful heart. You'll have to, you'll have to be the devil, you can be Servants of righteousness, and by obeying continue with Bank, in the heart, we did it once. We came to Christ, but it's an ongoing process. We have a yield ourselves as Servants of righteousness, right? Okay. So these two stripping hood that we have driven of sin or silver righteous is because we're under to Administration, okay? The law was given by Moses. The grace and truth. And we get that through face came by Jesus Christ. We're going to talk about that. That's also law Grace and Truth through Jesus Christ. That's called The Law of the life in Christ. OK Google, servants because there's two kinds of law, okay? And we should be thankful that we are not under the law of Moses. the law of Mount Sinai, and The law that you have to do everything in the law. And your come for every single thing I do or if you don't do it, no, excuse. Okay, so let's join the next verse. Romans 8:2 in this talks about the two kinds of Law and more and more specifically I said Walking by Moses the love God command Moses, but Grace and Truth. Came by Jesus Christ. In this tells us the two kinds of walks Okay, it's the law of the spirit of life in Christ. Jesus, that Grace and Truth doesn't listen, Grace, and Truth for the spirit of Life In Christ. It's a long life. Have made me free. We are free men and Christ in the, the wall of Life Christ. Jesus free from the lost in that. We're no more under Moses law. Any longer you say, But we have work Freeman in Christ and sets a law that leads to life. Not a log of Synod. Sucu, insane. And we should think about that. We should think about. That we are Servants of the Lord Jesus Christ sermons that lead to life. Bayou Bank, the Heart by yielding ourselves Servants of righteousness and we should not go back and reduce Christian, you bunch of laws, you see? A glaciers that talks about the fruits of the spirit and in the end, it says against which there is no law. You cannot prescribe law for the fruits of the spirit from the heart. Christianity is not a rule of laws of do this, do that. It's a matter of you doing it, you know because we love Jesus, right? If you love me, keep my Commandments. Right? Gary one another's burdens and fulfil the law of Christ even saying why do we bear one another's burdens? Because we have to know because we love Jesus insane. So that's the difference and you should be thankful. You're Christian be thankful that you live in the ministration that brings lights. That you eat that you're not judged for every iota of the of the law that you cannot keep anyway. Okay, let's look at this verse, John 8:36.

John 8, 36.

if the son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free, indeed. I already told you that you are servant. Right, Royal servant servant of sin or servant righteousness, but here's the thing about Freedom. What you think about this now, member Freedom with wrinkles responsibility for? What is the freedom that we have in course of our service? Say, we are slaves and slaves to Christ, right? But we are free men. So how you going to square those two? Because it's a condition of the heart. See. No, we are free to obey the law of God before we had to put made long. We couldn't find where judge for know as much as much as Ezekiel in. Jeremiah God, took away our Heart of Stone, give us heart of flesh but we not only can. But we want to obey God's laws were three to to glorify God. We're free to love Jesus. We free to love each other and there is joy in having a heart that can actually play our heavenly father. This is a joyful, this is joyful, all this is a lot of light, does not lock lost in a job. This is a gracious law. and we gladly, Call our Lord, Jesus Christ because he is Grace and Truth and you will not judge. We do it because we love him, that's a totally different, so we're totally free.

But there are restrictions like 7, Ever every freedom this restrictions, okay? So Galatians 5:13 through 15

She sometimes Freedom, we get little cocky, right? I can do what I want to do. You ain't tell me what to do. Wait, don't tell me what to do for you. So are you at me like what were Moses said? So don't kill who made YouTube.

You catch up with you, do you what you ain't? Jesus. Never heard that before. What makes you makes you think? What? Makes what makes you think you're better than me? See wealthy, that's not a spirit of love seat but let's read what Paul said to the Galatians, okay? For Brethren, you haven't called to Liberty. All right, we are three men and three women in Christ. The son and Sons are you free, right? But only use not your Liberty for an occasional Flash. You got them saying there's a balance. Their yes you're free you can do what you want, but don't Listen to your flash. Listen to the voice of Jesus. Listen to love, love and light. Yeah. Listen to the law of what God says in a way to glorify him, but that don't mean you that don't need to go to a freedom that you should exercise your freedom of the flesh. That don't give me nothing but by love serve one. Another remember we're servants were serving a free man deep. Be sure. And sure we each other. Voluntarily. It's not. You cannot prescribe. You can't prescribe love. You can't make somebody love you. Okay, you can't make you can't make yourself to love somebody. You have to do it voluntarily because your heart's been changed and and hang. If you can, if you don't want to love. If it's if you're the one person that you can't find something people that you got question. When you have a heart of love, the picture of you are in the administration of the spirit of the law of white, because your heart is change. If you are in Christ Jesus, you're not, you're not in the room and do that because you can't do this. Now, I'm saying, But when you have that free, do you got to be careful? That you don't use that to say, say why do anyone want you too? And and you know that's what you told me, he would do it for free. When knowing you ain't free you just you just you just twisted up Twisted, the word of God, like double-dipping, I'm saying, okay, so let me read the whole thing, it's for brother. You have not, you can call the Liberty. Yeah, only use that you're looking for a case just left, but a pile of shrivel. Another for all the wall tear under the wall is a spiritual lol. See, that's why David sent the law of war with perfect. Oh God, nobody. Because he saw the beauty of the log. I ain't going to be saved by the law, but he saw that the laws perfect. It's me, that's not perfect, but now that my heart has changed, I love God, more. If you're not a Christian, you think the people that live in Christianity as a juice and don't, you know, what is? They are not enlightened than that. I question your heart been saved because that's not, that's not the kind of thunder. Work work in a whip Recreation truth. It's a law of life. We want to do these things. You don't do that for the last one, filled at 1 board. Even in this doesn't love thy neighbor as thyself, but if you bite and devour one, another are the words. If you if you use your hoodie for kids with less, if you bite each other up, the barbecue there, take heed that you do not consume when other will be eating up. While I see that is not, that is not the law of Liberty, okay, that is perverting the truth, okay? So we got to be careful as Christians because, you know, I just think about it, we got to be careful because we love our Liberty but we don't we don't need. We don't use your Liberty to to hurt one of the person come on now. Is that makes sense. Or are we insulating somebody when we do that? Oh yes. We are we are bored and over that. Right? Work work. Work work for you today. That meant? Yes, that's where Liberty. But how we going to have Harmony and unity unless we see what other people do. Okay, so that. Just like that's kind of a safeguard, okay? And then here's another one for Christians, Romans, 7:20 to 2:25

It is one. I really love this person cuz it really really speaks to our condition here. See. No, it in. What you just look up after you found this in. And I'll give you the backdrop of this. Number one free man is if the if you know the son he will set us free. So you know, Christ. We are free men. Hallelujah. That's does. Wonderful. We're not under the bondage of the law, we have to do every single thing that we don't keep it perfectly. You know, you you offended when you send it all. You don't, you don't think I'm going to be judged by it and you know and that's all we can do it before before we came to faith in Christ. That's all we can do is shin. So how stuck where we what is Flavor, we need to go. I need to see the the initiation of of of of the law of God and we can't keep it. And we're Sinners. Everyone continue to send I'm going to be judged by it. We are trapped and Christ said the street from that, which I'm saying that we should rejoice in God. But there's another aspect of our freedom in Christ, but also our bondage because I mentioned before that we have an old man, we are the Lost in the depths within our members. Okay. Okay. It talked about the struggle inside of sin. And be free from sin OK delusions of pastors that say this talked about as soon as I can waken going through. The sense that you can like Pilgrim's Progress if you know about that. Who who thinks that, you know, I'm wicked and I can't get rid of my shin. I'm depraved and I need Jesus. And that's even applied to that way. And then always apply other good creatures of light and table just applied to a Christian. That wants to be holy Sanctified, you know, that that hates the sin within them and end their scripture grounds for that too. And I think I should I think it's I apply it to two lost people all the time when I preached but I think primarily it applies to the Christian just think about what what Paul said Romans that it does not even Christians, have grown into be redeemed, you know I'm saying. But now let's look at this Romans 7 24:25, he begins with this Paul speaking to the Romans for I Delight in the Lord God, after the ending with, man, they ain't a lost person. That's a safe person in the inward man. In the new man. A lost person, don't rejoice in the Lord. God does he? This is someone with a new nature to that. Rejoices like I told David said, by law a law, Oh God. Do I love the Lord? The Lord is perfect, converting the soul, all these things, he loves God's law when he's in a good place with his been placed right thing for I Delight in the Lord God after the inward man. Okay, but I see another law in my members warring against the law of my mind. Okay, so he's using the wall of my mind synonymously with the law of God cuz he knows his mind, he loves the Lord God okay? And bringing me into captivity to the lawsuit. Okay, what is that captivity to lost it? That's his old man. Okay, in his inward man in his room and he love the law of God, okay? And the world was mine, he didn't he loves the law of God but he's worried with himself as a part of him. But that is so captive to The Lofts in another, which he has an old nature and he wanted extinguish, he wants to get rid of it. He wants to be able to obey the law of God perfectly and when he sends, he hates himself, okay? And that's why he said, what you'd man that I am, who shall deliver me from the body of this death? That's just, what is old man? Who is going to destroy this old nature. And then he says I thank God through Jesus Christ Our Lord. He asked a question who had he answered it. Jesus Christ, you know I'm saying. So this is what it did to me is very clear. This Paul is talking about his desire to be wholly and completely Sanctified, you can apply it. So it doesn't happen very often do. Most people that are are not Christians they don't see themselves as Wick as depraved and want their nature to change. That's very unusual nowadays. OK side. Like that but it's not that unusual. Let me tell you. If somebody senses that their heart is wrong depraved and it don't they know that they can't trust Jesus because their heart is is changed. I have to do it there. Just one step away from salvation because they got some kind of Preparatory work there a sinner their own lies and the center needs a savior. You're saying, okay, let's go.

And that is in James 1:22, 25.

Okay, let me start meeting. Okay. This is Christmas on this important. Okay. Here is only we know that deceiving your own selves. We do that too. This is an important partner that maybe you don't, you haven't gotten for, if any be a hearer of the word. Inalador. He's like a man be holding his natural face in the glass. For he bold horde of himself and goes his way and straightway forget what manner of man. He was not look up police department, arrest reports. So what is Paul saying to the Twelve Tribes scattered abroad? To be saying if you hear the word of God that's important because the New Testament at this time was not written very much, but maybe not at all. James was in a chapter of yours killed by the edge of a store or used step brother the Lord Jesus, right? Okay. And the dogs were written me to buy 6080 about 30 years after the Lord. Jesus Christ. So much appreciated was propagated how by oral tradition that's who the Old Testament. Okay, but what, that's why you saying. So if you hear the word of God, but you didn't do it. Who are you? Like, you ignore you, like it was just like something, are you? You walk away and forgot what you look like in that insane. So in other words, if you are a person who just here to worry about, but you don't do it and you're clueless, you don't even know yourself. You don't know anything about yourself. You just saw yourself but you walked away to another. Would you don't know anything about yourself. You just hearing it and then go out the other ear, okay? look down your back again, but that's an adversity going to opposite, but don't forget, but who's also looking into the perfect love. Liberty. What you think about that? Perfect. If you shall, you shall know. The sun is Sun. Shall set you free, right. This is the perfect role of Liberty. That Christ gave us. What is the first of all? Liberty is somebody who hear the word of God and doesn't, you don't think that's? That is the ultimate Liberty that we have. Okay, is when we hear the word of God and do it, and it will that be totally bondage mean you have to do it the way they bonded for a Christian because a real Christian that's a good place. You hear the word of God meant, I want to do it, I want to obey and if you don't do it, then you're like calling Roman. Oh, Wretched, Man, that I am, who can blame him for the bottom is death, the body of death. Okay. Is that part of you that This is why I was you that prevents you from remembering the word of God and doing it. You don't you forget it? Why? Because it's in your room saying so the perfect Walgreens Liberty. That Christ gives us is when we hear the word of God and then do it. If you love me, keep my Commandments. Right. And is he abide in me and my words abide in you. You should ask what you looks and shall be done unto you. Jesus said, right right. You want to be worth much fruit. You got to buy them meet with me and my words abide in you, you know I'm saying?

Don't let me it's really good but whosoever looketh in the perfect love Liberty, what do you look in that mirror, your hearing the word of God and continue with Darren. You being not to forget to hear explicador the work. This man shall be blessed in his deed. You want to have the perfect love Liberty, you want to be blessed, you want to have a personal freedom and Lord Jesus Christ. The ultimate Freedom. Perfect. Perfect mature build up. Is you do the word of God? Don't just hear it, but you do it. Okay, so there's a spectrum. Okay, the Bible says in James, we don't want to be similar to himself on the one end. That's the short end of the stick, but hey, We can not only not deceive ourselves, but we can hear it and do it and be at the perfect love Liberty. You see the, you see the Spectrum there? We can forget what we saw in the mirror. We can hear it and not do it, and we just to see them ourselves you something, but if we do the opposite here and do their is the Christian like they're you want to be deceiving yourself. Go ahead for you if you want to keep it and remember what you saw, you want to maximize the promise of Christ that he set us free then you know, we hear it. But you do it. It worked. And that's how to help Christian Liberty Express is doing the word of God and you will be more happy and we would more blessed corn, the word of God that man shall be blessed in his deeds by performing that what you were told. So, thank you very much. I hope it's been a blessing if you want to.
