As I was reading Psalm 119 this morning, I was moved to read commentaries on verse 45 to get a sense of what the psalmist meant by ‘liberty.’ I thought the information was extremely useful in terms of how the commentators explained the vast difference of being under sin and under righteousness (by grace); that is, liberty from the different perspectives of the worldling and the Christian. I am finding that the transition between the old lifestyle and the Christian lifestyle is a huge one that takes a lot of rethinking; one aspect of that rethinking is that our word meanings must be in line with God’s words in the Bible. This post, therefore, provides a biblical definition of ‘liberty’ and much more.
