The nature of Christian freedom, addressed in Paul’s letter to the Galatians, centers on an acceptance with and access to God that is made possible only through Christ. Alistair Begg reminds us that this freedom entails applying limits, expressing love, and fulfilling the law. Ultimately, Christian liberty allows us to live, love, and serve under the control of God and His Holy Spirit.
13For you were called to freedom, brothers. qOnly do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love rserve one another. 14For sthe whole law is fulfilled in one word: t“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 15But if you ubite and devour one another, watch out that you are not consumed by one another.
