Our Walk: The Freedom of Submission

Scripture:
1 Peter 2:13-17

Overview

The Christian understanding of freedom is at complete loggerheads with what our culture tells us. And I’d say most of us as Christians have trouble understanding it ourselves.

An extremely important concept for understanding the Christian life is the freedom of a Christian. It’s a theme that runs all the way through the New Testament: the paradox that Christians are free through submission, free through service, free through obedience, free through submission to liberating authority.

Let’s look at 1 Peter to learn about Christian spiritual freedom: 1) what it is, 2) what it brings, and 3) how it can grow in you.
