Outline 1. Freedom from the Law 2. Freedom through Christ
and the Truth 3. The Law of 4. Following the Law of 5. 1. Freedom from the Law Romans 7:6 But now we
have been released from the law, for we died to it and are no longer captive to
its power. Now we can serve God, not in the old way of obeying the letter of
the law, but in the new way of living in the Spirit. Romans 8:2 And because
you belong to him, the power of the life-giving Spirit has freed
you from the power of sin that leads to death. 2. Freedom through Christ
and the Truth John 8:32 And
you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. John 8:36 So if the
Son sets you free, you are truly free. Galatians 3:13 But
Christ has rescued us from the curse pronounced by the law. When he was hung on
the cross, he took upon himself the curse for our wrongdoing. For it is written
in the Scriptures, “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.” 3. The Law of 1 Corinthians 6:12 You
say, “I am allowed to do anything”—but not everything is good for you. And even
though “I am allowed to do anything,” I must not become a slave to anything. 1 Corinthians 8:9-11 But
you must be careful so that your freedom does not cause others with a weaker
conscience to stumble. 10 For if others see you—with your “superior
knowledge”—eating in the temple of an idol, won’t they be encouraged to violate
their conscience by eating food that has been offered to an idol? 11 So
because of your superior knowledge, a weak believer for whom Christ died
will be destroyed. 4. Following the Law of James 1:25 But if you look carefully into the perfect law
that sets you free, and if you do what it says and don’t forget what you heard,
then God will bless you for doing it. 5. 2 Peter 2:19 They promise freedom, but they themselves are slaves of sin and corruption. For you are a slave to whatever controls you. Outline is from the Dixon Analytical Bible Scripture is from the New Living Bible
