A Call to Liberty

Galatians 5:13 For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this:“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”fn 15 But if you bite and devour one another, beware lest you be consumed by one another!  NKJV

“To bite and devour” means to harm and exploit.  This is precisely what those currently in power do to the masses for personal gain.  Financial leaders are more interested in their next bonus than what they are doing to the general public by exposing everyone to unnecessary risks of their life savings.  If you truly believe that Jesus died for all mankind, then you have to accept the fact that ALL men are ultimately classified as your neighbor.  Therefore we are commanded to Love all mankind just as Jesus did.  In understanding this Truth, we comprehend that Our Heavenly Father Loves all of HIS creation, no matter what their current state.

The Old Testament Law could not be satisfied by man’s ability to walk in it.  The children of Israel proved this time and time again.  It required the perfect sacrifice of Jesus Christ to bring forth a change.  This change was a result of Love.  Until you line up with the Divine Intent of Love, you will continue to harm and exploit your neighbor.  It you don’t walk in Love, you will be consumed yourself.  It is that simple!  As you walk in Love, you are freed from the Law of sin and death.  Walking in Love is walking in liberty.
