Concise Bible Dictionary
:
Besides the common application of this term, it is used in
scripture
symbolically, as
1.
The liberty obtained by Christ for those that were captives of
Satan
(
Isa. 61:1
1
The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; (Isaiah 61:1)
;
Luke 4:18
18
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, (Luke 4:18)
;
John 8:36
36
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. (John 8:36)
).
2.
The
conscience
set free from guilt, as when the
Lord
said to several, “Thy sins be forgiven thee: go in
peace
.”
3.
Freedom from the
law
, “Stand
fast
therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free” (
Rom. 7:24-25
24
O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin. (Romans 7:24‑25)
;
Gal. 5:1
1
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1)
).
Jesus
said, “I am the
door
: by me if any
man
enter in he shall be saved, and
shall go in and out
, and find pasture” (
John 10:9
9
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. (John 10:9)
).
4.
The
Christian
’s
deliverance
from the
power
of
sin
by having died with Christ, as in
Romans 6:8-22
8
Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10
For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11
Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
12
Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
13
Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.
14
For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.
15
What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace? God forbid.
16
Know ye not, that to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness?
17
But God be thanked, that ye were the servants of sin, but ye have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you.
18
Being then made free from sin, ye became the servants of righteousness.
19
I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh: for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.
20
For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.
21
What fruit had ye then in those things whereof ye are now ashamed? for the end of those things is death.
22
But now being made free from sin, and become servants to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end everlasting life. (Romans 6:8‑22)
; and, having reckoned himself dead to sin, experimentally enjoying liberty, as in
Romans 8:2-4
2
For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3
For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4
That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (Romans 8:2‑4)
, after experiencing that the
flesh
is too strong for him. The deliverance is realized by the
Spirit
of
life
in Christ Jesus, and the love of
God
is known and enjoyed. Christ is then the object before the
soul
, and not self.
