Brethren, the concept of liberty under the law, as revealed through Jesus Christ, is central to our calling. True liberty is living as we should, not as we please, empowered by the Spirit of the Lord to live God's way of give rather than the way of get promoted by our enemy. This liberty, defined in the Greek as "eleutheria," signifies a state of being free from domination or constraint, allowing us to walk in peace within God's commandments. Through Jesus Christ, we are delivered from the spirit of bondage under our enemy and brought into the glorious liberty of the children of God. This process of liberation begins and ends with Him, as He proclaimed liberty to the captives. We are to live in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life, disciplining ourselves with a circumcised heart through His power. God's law provides a hedge of liberty, enabling us to move freely and peacefully within His commandments. This liberty under law, as seen in the prophecy of Isaiah 61, is connected to freedom and release, a spontaneity of outflow that keeps us pure and sanctified for the return of Christ. Those liberated by Him are preserved pure, set apart by living God's way of life under His law. We must appreciate the incredible privilege He has given us to live both the letter and the spirit of His law of liberty, consciously worshipping our Great God in spirit and in truth. Through Jesus Christ, we have real liberty under God's law and the Spirit of God to abide by it, being sanctified by the pouring out of His Holy Spirit on those who will be His at His coming. As He declared, the Spirit of the Lord is upon Him to set us at liberty, and our calling is to do all the words of this law.

True simplicity, peace, and spiritual flourishing emerge when God's chosen saints yield to both God's laws and human authority, embracing order rather than resisting it. Scriptures from I Corinthians, James, Romans, and Proverbs reveal that God's holy and spiritual commandments are life-giving, timeless, and the foundation of spiritual liberty. Faith is active, expressed through consistent, loving obedience, not passive belief —- and obedience to God's Word brings joy wisdom , and alignment with His purpose. Respecting human authority, even when imperfect, reflects trust in God's sovereign designed, as exemplified by early Christians under Roman rule. Resistance to lawful structures leads to chaos, stress, and moral confusion. This message applies these principles to contemporary issues, warning against overreach in government and coercive mandates, emphasizing discernment, moral courage, and reliance on God Trials and challenges are opportunities for growth, divine intervention, and strengthened faith. Ultimately, simplicity is found not in avoiding life's complexities, but in yielding to God's order, narrowing choices through His guidance, producing peace, clarity, and assurance in every aspect of life.
