Many of us are serious about following Jesus but still have bridges back to our old lives that need to be destroyed. When you have sin in your life, it blocks you from hearing what God wants to say to you and prevents you from experiencing true freedom.

It is easy for Christians to fall for the myth that says religious activity equals personal transformation. True freedom isn’t found by just going through the religious motions. James 1:22 challenges us by saying, “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. DO WHAT IT SAYS.”

Christianity isn’t just a good way to die, but it’s the best way to live. While we fear God is going to take away our freedom and make our lives miserable, Jesus painted quite a different picture. Jesus says in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

Since the Garden of Eden human beings have been saying, “Don’t mess with my FREEDOM.” The reality is that FEAR of God’s law prevents many from experiencing the best way to live -- fear that it will restrict us from our desires rather than set us free. 

In this week’s podcast series, Gene shares the best path to freedom, a freedom that deep down, we all long for.

The only way you can love authentically is if you have the free will not to love.

In the beginning, God’s very Spirit was inside of Adam and Eve. After the choice was made that led to spiritual death, His Spirit left them. And now people like us are in need of a new birth. Thankfully, we can be renewed by power of the Holy Spirit.

Every great book starts with the plot. In the beginning, Adam and Eve lived in a perfect world because they had a perfect relationship with God. God created mankind because He longed for a relationship with people like us -- but every authentic relationship goes two ways.
