liberty

Do you value your liberty over any of your possessions? It is my gift to you, and I tell you to stand fast in it. Men can take it from you by force, but it is more common to give it away voluntarily. I warned you against being entangled in the yoke of bondage. The nobility of liberty depends on how you exercise it. For many it is an open door to self-indulgence and sin. There is no honor in this. I value your liberty so highly that I will not close the door even if you walk the path of self-destruction. Yet I also place before you an open door that leads to life. I made an enormous sacrifice to open this door for you. Exercise your liberty to walk through it and keep walking with me.
