Continuous freedom comes from exposing our sin (Eph 5:11) by confessing our sin (1 John 1:9) and renouncing our association with sin (Titus 2:11-12) and repenting (2 Pet 3:9) of our sin and continually submitting to God and resisting (James 4:7) further temptations to sin and diligently standing firm (Gal 5:1, Eph 6:14) in our new freedom.

Our Primary Motive

Like Jesus, our primary motive in life should always be to please our heavenly Father.

28 Then Jesus said, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own initiative, but I speak just what the Father taught me. 29 And the one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do those things that please him.” (John 8:28-29 NET)

Reconciliation Ministry

Ours is a Ministry and a Message of Reconciliation.

18 And all these things are from God who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and who has given us the ministry of reconciliation. 19 In other words, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting people’s trespasses against them, and he has given us the message of reconciliation. (2 Cor 5:18-19 NET)

Jesus, Bring Us to the Father

Jesus replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6 NET)

Restoring Freedom to God's Children

We help fellow Christians fully realize their glorious freedom as God's children in Christ Jesus.

...the glorious freedom of God's children (Roman 8:21)

For freedom Christ has set us free. (Galatians 5:1)

The Steps to Freedom in Christ is a practical application of Hebrews 12:1-2 (ESV)

“Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance, and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God”.

Every born again Christian is a child of God. (John 1:12, 1 John 3:1)
You are an heir of God and fellow heir with Christ. (Romans 8:17)
You are an heir of the kingdom of God. (James 2:5)

You are accepted, secure and significant in Christ.

God offers us complete spiritual freedom.  Our responsibility is to acknowledge and confess our sin (1 John 1:9) and the lies we have believed (2 Thes 2:7-12) and repent by turning away from our sin (Acts 20:26...), resisting temptations and accusations (James 4:7...) and exposing deceptions by believing the truth (John 8:32...).

Responsibility Quote of the Day

Obtaining Freedom is Our Personal Responsibility

Paul instructs us to make no provision for the flesh. What if we do? We are told to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. What if we don't? James 4:7 admonishes us to "resist the devil and he will flee from you." What if we don't resist him? Is he required to flee from us if we don't take our stand against him? No, if we don't resist him, he doesn't have to go. We have the assurance of God's protection, but we must assume our responsibility to personally resist Satan. Choosing truth, living a righteous life, and donning the armor of God is each believer's individual responsibility. I cannot be responsible for you, and you cannot be responsible for me. I can pray for you, encourage you in the faith, and support you, but if you go into the battle without your armor on, you may get hurt. As much as that may be a matter of concern for me, I still cannot make those decisions of responsibility for you. Those choices are yours alone.

Our Responsibilities - Complete List

Transforming Truths

  • Spiritual warfare is not a power encounter but a truth encounter.
  • You are not a sinner because you sin, you are a saint, declared righteous by God, who sins.
  • Your identity does not come from what you have done – your identity comes from what God has done for you.
  • Your identity does not come from what people say about you – your identity comes from what God says about you.
  • Your behavior does not tell you what to believe about yourself – your belief about yourself determines your behavior.
  • No one will consistently act in a manner that is contrary to how they see themselves.
  • Humbly submit to God, Resist the Devil, and he WILL flee from you. James 4:6-7
  • Everyone has faith; it is just a matter of who or what your faith is in.
  • Satan’s biggest weapon is deception because you don’t know you are deceived.
