Knowledge of Absolute Truth Manufactures Freedom.
1. John 8:32 “You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.”
2. This is another way of saying that good decisions create options for greater decisions, while bad decisions destroy those options.
3. The Cosmic System has the power to change lives for the worse while the Divine Dynasphere has the power to change lives for the better. None of us stand still; we are getting better or worse.
4. Better or worse is the daily option of our free will functioning in the sphere of freedom.
5. Freedom carries the responsibility of making decisions based on the truth of Bible doctrine rather than on the arrogance and evil, which is Satan’s propaganda inside the Cosmic System.
6. Freedom to fail results in recognition of our human frailties and our weaknesses. Recognition of our weaknesses is neither demeaning nor degrading. Every human being has weaknesses.
7. All solutions in life begin with weakness and the recognition of our failures. Just as a person cannot be saved until he recognizes that he is lost; likewise, a person cannot have a resolution to his failures until he recognizes his weaknesses. At this point, he will try to overcome his weaknesses, and fail, or he will rely on God’s provision and power, and win.
8. Trying to overcome weaknesses is commendable, but we all have a sin nature that we succumb to. Believers have access to the power of the Holy Spirit that over- come their weaknesses which enables them to stay in fellowship with the Lord.
9. When a believer sins, he goes into carnality and becomes estranged to the Lord. The only way for him to be right again is to acknowledge his sin/sins to Him, then he is forgiven for all his sins and is cleansed from all unrighteousness.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
