How does Jesus set captives free according to the Bible?

In Luke 4:18, Jesus proclaims that He has come to proclaim deliverance to captives, specifically addressing those enslaved by sin. The bondage of sin is such that individuals are unable to liberate themselves, defined as slaves to their sinful nature. True freedom comes only through Christ, as He bears the sins and sets individuals free from the guilt and power of sin. This deliverance is a core tenet of the gospel, assuring believers that Christ’s work guarantees their release and restoration.
