| 1 | The Liberating Life of Jesus: Finding Fr | John Van Gelderen |
| As a young Christian minister, John Van Gelderen held to the letter of the law, focusing on separation from the world. Then, the Lord showed him that much of his Christian life was works oriented instead of Spirit-filled. John needed to change his focus from the law to the person of Jesus. Other Christians focus on an opposite goal: a lax version of Christianity, which seeks to avoid legalism but actually embraces its own ideas of freedom that can lead to fleshly living. This leads to license. To live the Spirit-filled life, our goal cannot be law or license. It must be a person: Jesus. The Liberating Life of Jesus shows us that in Jesus, we are free - not controlled by legalism or led astray by license. This is true Christian liberty found in the liberating life of Jesus! |
