God Thinking 64 True Freedom In christ 2

"Freedom in Christ was never meant to be used as a tool or a loophole in the plan of God to keep you from a holy walk. 

No, freedom in Christ was imparted to you to empower you to keep you from the things of the world.

Christ died to free you from the bondage of sin, not so that you would embrace the world under the pretense that you are sanctified in sin, but that you would be separated from sin.

Galatians 5:1

1.  Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.

You are to guard your relationship with God above all else.  You are bought with a price and you are the bride of Christ. And as the bride of Christ, you are to be faithful to the groom.
