  14. FREEDOM • Five essential concept for freedom in Christ • 2ndconcept • Accepting The Truth • God’s Word is true and we need to accept His trust in the innermost part of our being (see Psalm 51:6).Whether or not we feel it is true, we need to believe it Since Jesus is the truth (see John 14:6), the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth (See John 16:13), and the Word of God is truth (see John 17:17), we ought to speak and live the truth in love (see Ephesians 4:15).

  15. FREEDOM • Five essential concept for freedom in Christ • 3rdconcept • Submission vs. Rebellion • Rebelling against God and His authorities is a very serious sin for it gives Satan a wide open avenue to attack. Submission is the only solution. God requires more, however, than just the outward appearance of submission; He wants us to sincerely submit to those in authority from the heart. When you stand under the authority of God and those He has placed over you, you cut off this dangerous avenue of demonic attack. LET GO AND LET GOD Presented: Jason Phillips

  16. FREEDOM • Five essential concept for freedom in Christ • 4thconcept • Humility vs. Pride • Pride kills. Pride says, “I don’t need God or anyone else’s help. I can handle it by myself.” Oh no you can’t! We absolutely need God and we desperately need each other. Humility, is confidence properly placed in God. Proverbs 3:3-7 expresses a similar thought: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight. LET GO AND LET GOD Presented: Jason Phillips

  17. FREEDOM • Five essential concept for freedom in Christ • 5thconcept • Freedom vs. Bondage • Many times we feel trapped in a vicious cycle of sin-confess-sin-confess that never seems to end. We can become very discouraged and end up just giving up and giving in to the sins of our flesh. We resist the devil by rejecting his lies and walking in the truth. Sin that has become a habit often requires help from a trusted brother or sister in Christ. Remember, confession is not saying “I’m sorry,” it is openly admitting, “I did it.” LET GO AND LET GOD Presented: Jason Phillips
