How do we know Christ sets us free?

Christ's promise of freedom is not just a theoretical concept; it is a profound spiritual reality experienced by believers. In John 8:36, Jesus states, 'If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.' This freedom is evidenced in the believer’s life by a change in desires, where once we loved sin, now we hate it. The work of the Holy Spirit in believers illuminates this truth, guiding them to a deeper understanding of the gospel and empowering them to live in accordance with God's will. Believers can testify to this freedom as they experience forgiveness and a newfound ability to resist sin.
