Pentecost: The Spirit’s Freedom

God wants you free from the influence of lesser gods. They uncreate you, forcing endless production and sacrifice while under-delivering identity and peace. The results of their un-creation are bondage, addiction, anxiety, and fear.

But where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. You were called to be free.

This last Sunday Alex taught on the Spirit’s freedom. In Romans 7 Paul describes the war between the law of the flesh and the law of the Spirit.

The law of the flesh is about trying to use external means to solve internal issues, or, using earthly strategies for spiritual problems. The law of the Spirit is that you are no longer in the realm of the flesh! Jesus lived the life you could not. He declared that it is finished, the search for personal glory through a system is over. And He gave you His Spirit to birth you again so you don’t live through effort, but through the power of God.

If you want the freedom of the Holy Spirit, you must surrender to the Holy Spirit. It may be an unpredictable life, but the fruit of dependence is more than you could ask or imagine.
