The longer I live, the more I appreciate living in the “land of the free.” For I can say just about anything I want to say without the fear of reprisal. I don’t. I hold my tongue because wisdom typically trumps freedom. I can go wherever I want to go, so long as I have the funds and a current passport to get me there. I can do whatever I want to do, so long as it’s within the bounds of the law – or plow forward and pay the legal consequences.
Freedom – the ability to say, go and do whatever we yearn to say, go, or do. If we want to curse out a neighbor for being less than neighborly, we have the freedom. If we want to attend some far right-wing or far left-wing political rally, we have the freedom. If we want to get high on crack or drunk on Jesus, we have the freedom. But all this so-called freedom we have living in our good old US of A certainly begs this Christian question: “Is this what Jesus had in mind when He declared, ‘If the Son sets you free, you are truly free?’”
Why not tune in this Sunday morning at 10 to hear more?
