Freedom

The Freedom That Sets Us Free!

In todayā€™s culture, freedom is often defined as doing whatever you wantā€”living without restrictions, chasing your happiness, and controlling your destiny. But when you dig into the Greek word eleutheros, meaning “free,” you discover that real freedom isnā€™t about cutting all tiesā€”itā€™s about being connected to the right things. True freedom isnā€™t found in isolation, but in surrender to God.

Understanding True Freedom!

We often think of freedom as the ability to do what we want, when we want, without interference. So when Yeshua says things like ā€œDonā€™t worry about tomorrow,ā€ ā€œForgive seventy times seven,ā€ or ā€œTurn the other cheek,ā€ they strike us as anything but freeing. They sound like burdens, not blessings — commands that restrict rather than release.

After forty years of wandering in the wilderness, Israel finally crossed into the Promised Landā€”on the 10th day of Nissan, the very day they had been commanded to choose their Passover lamb [Exodus 12:3 , Joshua 4:19].

Pass over!

Tomorrow night, thousands will begin celebrating the feast of Pesach (Passover), the day we remember God’s merciful redemption of the Jewish people from Egypt. When the final plague struck Pharoh and the Egyptians in Exodus, those who were spared were the ones who applied blood to their doorposts as God warned. Interestingly, the blood that God required them to apply then was the blood of a spotless, unblemished lamb.

It’s Washed Away!

As Scotland was declaring its independence from England in the 1300’s, the English were hunting for Robert Bruce of Scotland in an attempt to prevent his accession to the Scottish throne. In the search, the English put Bruce’s own bloodhounds on his trail. As they grew closer to apprehending him, Robert the Bruce found a small river, and he said to his foster-brother who was with him, “Let us wade down this stream for a great way, instead of going straight across, and so these unhappy hounds will lose the scent; for if we were once clear of them, I should not be afraid of getting away from the pursuers.”

When Yeshua (Jesus) went into the synagogue in Nazareth and was handed the scroll of Isaiah to read [Luke 4:18], He opened it to the passage we know of as Isaiah 61, a powerful Messianic proclamation filled with hope and promise and fresh with the joyful good news of His arrival. After reading the passage He immediately declared that it was fulfilled in the hearing of those present. The first response was amazement and wonder that the carpenter’s son was so gracious a communicator. But this did not last, as Yeshua immediately challenged his audience with a prophetic expectation…that they would reject Him, which they immediately did…nevertheless…
