Walk in your freedom, Gal. 5:1-2amp
It was for this freedom that Christ set us free [completely liberating us]; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery [which you once removed].
2 Notice, it is I, Paul, who tells you that if you receive circumcision [as a supposed requirement of salvation], Christ will be of no benefit to you [for you will lack the faith in Christ that is necessary for salvation].
Gal. 5:1-2 AMP
We are free because Christ set us free. We are completely liberated. We are to stand firm in Christ and not put on the yoke of the law. The only yoke we place upon ourselves is the yoke of Christ which frees us from sin and the law (Matthew 11:28-30). We are free from religion!
Verse 2 teaches us that anything from or of the law is of no benefit to us ( So why are some of you still preaching it?). We live in Jesus now. Paul tells us we lack faith in Him to save us if we continue to rely on the law. Remember John 8:36, "you are unquestionably free". You don't belong to the law or to religious trials or rituals! You belong to Christ! Walk in Him today and be free always.
