If the Son should make you free, you should he free indeed, John 8:36. Ye have been called unto liberty, only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh Galatians 5:13. Romans 6:20-23,
Such as use an unbounded liberty, to do what they please, are the greatest slaves of their own passions; nay, of Satan himself. But such as omit only the gross and outward sins, are far from true repentance, and fall into self-righteousness. The greatest of all sins is the original sin, which is always before the eyes of true converts, and becomes daily more abominable. This makes them groan and pray evermore.
O Lord, pardon mine iniquity, for it is great; and that they abide in Christ continually, who gives true liberty, not to commit, but to overcome sin.
Shall we go on to sin,
Because thy grace abounds;
Or crucify the Lord again.
And open all his wounds!
Forbid it, mighty God!
Nor let it ever be said,
That we, whose sins are crucified.
Should raise them from the dead.
We shall be slaves no more,
Since Christ has made us free,
Has nailed our tyrants to his cross,
And bought our liberty.
