Our Dependent Freedom

The concept and desire for freedom and independence was as important to the people of God in early Israel as it is to us today. “We think of ourselves, as Americans, as being “the people with freedom.” Certainly, our country cherishes being a land of liberty, but are we holding true to basic principles? The history of our nation's founding is tied to the quest for individual religious freedom. Many of those early colonists sought this land in order to have their freedom of religious expression. Each following

I Sweet Land of Liberty

The first Americans on this earth struggled for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness; and today, we continue in this struggle. Jesus said, “ . . . I am come that they might have life and that they might have it more abundantly. (John 10:10) We need to learn of that abundant life by reading the Bible, as through reading it, we learn about salvation, we learn how to pray and we learn how to live Godly lives on this earth. America is great because God has blessed this nation and He will continue to bless us as a nation as long as we turn our hearts to things of God. Daily we should pray and thank God for our liberty, as so many nations cannot celebrate liberty as we do on the fourth. According to Saint Luke, Chapter 17, Christ’s second coming will be as it was in the days of Lot. This dty was destroyed because the people were in sin and had forgotten God. We must be careful that our nation is not headed that way. We have increased greatly in sins of alcoholism, suicides, drug addicts, sex which is filmed, sex without marriage, homosexuality, X-rated movies, nudity on TV, beaches and movies, adultery, materialism, love of money, the occult (fortune telling, horoscopes and the like), much vanity and wealth, taking the Lord’s name in vain and many others. And yet, God does not withdraw His mercy from us for He says: “If my people shall humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven and forgive their

generations added to that search and the result was an independent political system, designed to be representative, honorable and affording to the many inhabitants of this land, personal and religious freedom. The First Amendment to our Constitution provides in part that: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise theory.” Yet, today, we live in a land where many view our First Amendment as insuring freedom from religion rather than of religion! We today, need to be aware that we are not the first and only people to seek freedom and independence; his has been man’s quest through the ages. The history of the people of Israel was marked by that search. Israel was free and independent only so long as it was dependent on God. Let us today not forget this relationship; we, too, have our freedom and independence, but let us not forget our dependence on God. In an age when under the disguise of freedom many things are legal, let us look to 1 Peter 2:16 “Live as free men, not however as though your freedom were there to provide a screen for wrong doing, but as slaves in God’s service.”

sins and will heal their land. (II Chron. 7:14) “And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.” (Saint John 8:32) Jesus Christ is the truth, the way and the life.(Saint John 14:6) From Him we receive the Holy Spirit. “Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.” (II Cor. 3:17) < “For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through life be servants of one another. For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ ” (Galatians 5:13-14) Christ has freed us from our sins by dying on the Cross for them. “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” (sin and the devil) (Galatians 5:1) “For blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord . . . ” (Psalm 33:12) Let us pray: Our father’s God! to Thee, Author of liberty, To Thee we sing; Long may our land be bright With freedom’s holy light; Protect us by Thy might, Great God, our King! Amen
