In Hebrews, Jesus Christ is described as being different than all the sacrifices that preceded Him. All of them failed to take away sin. They could turn aside the wrath of God for a season, but they would never make the person who was offering it righteous. Then Christ came, and He was different. He actually took away sin. He actually took men who were slaves to sin and set them free. He ended sin’s power in their life and brought them to liberty.
In this episode, we want to look at what it means to be free in Christ. So many people claim that Christian liberty means that we can do what we want to do, but this is not how God’s Word describes it. Christian liberty is freedom to do what is right. It is the man who goes from being completely unable to choose righteousness to being able to glorify God in everything he does. One of the ideas that we want to discuss throughout the episode is how vast and broad the freedom that God gives to those who are His servants. Slavery to sin all leads to the same, solitary place, eternal death. But righteousness leads ever higher and deeper into the boundless glory of service to God.
