| Coming
into Christian Community
Charles Albrecht
As Christians, when we acknowledge Jesus’ sacrifice
and victory on our behalf, we find freedom from the things
that gripped us beforehand. But this is more than a freedom
‘from’ those things that held us in check beforehand,
it is also freedom ‘for’ certain other things.
Freedom in Christ provides for an intimate relationship with
God and a freedom toward others – freedom from fear
of others, freedom in communication, freedom of expression,
and freedom to serve as disciples of Christ. |
