How do we know that freedom in Christ is real?

Answered in 1 source

Freedom in Christ is evident through our liberation from sin, showing that Christ's sacrifice paid the price for our redemption.

The reality of our freedom in Christ can be seen explicitly through the transformative power of His sacrifice. We were once enslaved to sin, but through Christ's atonement, we have been liberated from that bondage. Scripture, such as John 8:36, plainly states that if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed. This freedom is not merely a theoretical concept; it manifests in our new desires and motivations to serve God rather than sin. Moreover, 2 Corinthians 3:17 reminds us that where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty, emphasizing that our newfound freedom is intrinsically linked to the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit, which empowers us to live righteously. Therefore, our liberation in Christ is a comprehensive reality that affects both our spiritual and earthly lives.
