Liberty for works

Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.
Galatians 5:1 (NKJV)

Our value is not of an earthly currency or pay per hour, day, month or year. The price fully paid by the cost of Calvary gives a clear description of what we are worth. This value has ‘Liberty’ as part of its priceless features, one that we must guard and stand firmly on in the face of rising temptations and compromising values of our present world.

For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.
Galatians 5:13 (NKJV)

Our price has been fully paid; our liberty in the Lord must be channeled for good works and not as an opportunity to walk back into bondage in the guise of passing pleasures. To whom much has been given, much is also expected.

Be Encouraged,

Afolabi
