How Christ Sets Us Free

What this talk is about

One of the key things we must understand about the Gospel of Salvation is how Christ sets us free.

Freedom is the basis of the Gospel as we are saved from sin, and through the Gospel of Jesus we are able to be transformed into the image of Jesus Christ.

But how does this take place? What are the things we need to understand to receive this freedom in Christ? This is the subject of this week’s message.

23 For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26)

8. Operation of Spiritual Gifts.

27 If any speak in a tongue, let there be only two or at most three, and each in turn; and let one interpret. 28 But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silence in church and speak to himself and to God. 29 Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others weigh what is said. (1 Corinthians 14:27-29)

9. Anointing with oil for the sick

13 Is any one among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praise. 14 Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; 15 and the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up; and if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. (James 5:13-15)
