"Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed." John 8:36
What is freedom? Is it being able to say what you want? Do what you want? Go where you want?
Is freedom being able to worship whatever god you want?
Is it being able to own whatever gun you want?
Is freedom being able to drink? Being able to peacefully protest?
Is freedom tied to a piece of yellowing paper? Is it tied to what politicians in local,state, and federal governments decide?
Is it something that is given by the blood of soldiers?
Is that the freedom that Jesus is talking about?
Or is the freedom Jesus mentions, freedom from expectations?
Is it freedom from guilt? Freedom from lies?
Is it also freedom to things? Freedom to love, to live at peace, to give?
Is it freedom that is given?
Is it freedom to community? Freedom to belong? Freedom from loneliness?
+ What differences do you see in the freedom Jesus gives us and the freedoms we speak about in the US?
+ How has Jesus given you freedom?
Is freedom being able to worship whatever god you want?
