Fly Away from Falsehoods

Liberty

What is liberty

 without wisdom and

 without virtue?

 

"It is the greatest of all possible evils; for it is folly, vice, and madness, without tuition or restraint.'

-Edmund Burke, cited by Jeff Myers & David A. Noebel, Understanding the Times: A Survey of Competing Worldviews, pg.366

Galatians 5:13

..."For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not turn your freedom into an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another."...

*

1 Peter 2:16-17

..."Act as free men, and do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bondslaves of God.

Honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the king."...

Romans 8:5-8

 ..."For those who are according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who are according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace, because the mind set on the flesh is hostile toward God; for it does not subject itself to the law of God, for it is not even able to do so, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God."...
