In Our Culture: Freedom

Galatians 5:1 “Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.” (WEB)

Freedom is such a wonderful thing. We often don't really appreciate it unless we get a taste of life without it. Later this week we will celebrate this freedom as a nation on July 4th. Many people gave up their lives so we can have this freedom. What are you doing to help keep it?

The same can also be said of Christianity. I am constantly amazed at the level of freedom we have in this country. If you want a reminder of these freedoms, then go to www.persecution.com on any given day to see many countries which have little to no religious freedom. Many Christians around the world are struggling to find a copy of a Bible that is written in their own language. Contrast that with the many Americans who debate which translation is the most accurate. Isn't it wonderful that we are able to have this debate in the first place!
