The Spirit of Freedom: Part 1 (2 Cor 3:1-18)

Join Pastor Stuart as we continue in our new series, Freedom!

In our second lesson, we turn to the Apostle Paul's Second Letter to the Corinthians 3:1-18 as we learn about . . . "The Spirit of Freedom". In this lesson, we see:

• Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
• The Spirit gives freedom from the law as law.
• The “law as law” can be summarized as “Meet the demand or else face the penalty.”
• Instead of relating to the law as law, the Spirit gives us freedom to relate to the law as a coach guiding and training us.
• Since the Spirit resides in those who believe, we have this freedom.
• Therefore, for those who believe, by the work of the Spirit, we ought to work to see God’s law as a coach training us in what it means to be more like Jesus.
• And, for those who do not yet believe, by the work of the Spirit, you can turn to Christ who will free you from the law as law.
• So, let’s find true freedom in Christ by the work of the Spirit.
