Galatians 5:13 (NIV) "You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love."
Some are not willing to pay that price. They want to do whatever they want…whenever they want.
1 Peter 2:16 (NLT)"You are not slaves; you are free. But your freedom is not an excuse to do evil."
Liberty is not a license to do as we please! Freedom has limitations and boundaries!
1 Peter 2:16 (NLT)"You are not slaves; you are free. But your freedom is not an excuse to do evil."
Liberty is not a license to do as we please! Freedom has limitations and boundaries!
You see, Love puts limits on our actions and behavior…and does nothing out of selfishness or disregard for others. BUT…old Satan tempts us to practice license under the excuse of liberty.
"Do your own thing!
Be your own boss!
It’s your life, your body.
Don’t let anyone, even God, dictate to you."
"Go ahead! Just this once won’t hurt!
"Nobody will know! You can get away with it!"
Friends, don’t listen to that advice!
It leads to slavery!
ACTION STEP: Don’t listen to ungodly people!

2 Peter 2:18-19 (NLT)
"They brag about themselves with empty, foolish boasting. With lustful desire as their bait, they lure back into sin those who have just escaped from such wicked living. They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves to sin and corruption. For you are a slave to whatever controls you."
