Most people live their lives under the iron fist of tyranny. In the past century millions of people lost their lives because they crossed the wrong dictator! People naturally long for freedom, and will risk life itself to find it. Christ also spoke of freedom – but of a different sort. It is a freedom that does not depend upon who holds the reigns of power in the nation – but who sits upon the throne in heaven. We’ll talk about that today. “The Cost of Liberty” is taken from John 8:31-36.
