Introduction: Moses writes,

“And ye shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubile unto you; and ye shall return every man unto his possession, and ye shall return every man unto his family.” (Lev 25:10)

1. Liberty for Israel! (Lev 25:10)

The word “liberty” in this passage is דְּרוֹר, (der-ore’), which means a flowing, free run, liberty.

Since the Lord set the nation of Israel free from the bondage in Egypt, He required them to let the captives go free. Are you willing to let those who have hurt you go free? Our Lord is the judge.

2. Liberty for the Church! (Gal 5:1)

“Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.”

The word “liberty” is ἐλευθερία, (el-yoo-ther-ee’-ah), which means liberty, freedom, a state of freedom from slavery.

This passage refers to the law; i.e. trying to be justified or sanctified by the legalistic measures of keeping the law (Israel had around 613 of them!!). Instead, by grace thru faith, we are pronounced righteous and proven innocent. Are you a legalistic person? By the way, this does not mean we have a license to sin because we are under grace. (See Titus 2:11-14)

3. Jesus Christ has set us Free! (Luke 4:18, 19)

“18The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, 19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”

When Jesus Christ sets you free you are free indeed!

Conclusion: Freedom and liberty is found in a personal relationship with Jesus.

* Sins control – (Rom 6:1,2)
