Gal 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
I am thankful for the freedom we enjoy. I am especially thankful for the freedom that Christ has provided for us in salvation. We are admonished in this passage to not slip back into bondage after we have been set free. We become angry at the erosion of our freedoms in our country, yet at the same time, too many today are losing their spiritual freedom. Too many are not living careful lives and are once again becoming a slave to sin. In the context of this passage, many today are losing the liberty and freedom of a real relationship with God, and settling for the bondage of religious ceremonies. May God help us to keep the liberty He has purchased for us.
