What does the Bible say about being free born in Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Being free born in Christ means that true freedom comes from being born of God, not from any merit or purchase.

In Galatians 5:1, Paul emphasizes the importance of standing firm in the liberty that Christ has provided. Being 'free born' means that through salvation, believers are given a new birth into the Kingdom of God, which is a gift from God and not something earned or bought. This spiritual freedom contrasts with earthly citizenship, which can be lost; our citizenship in heaven is secured by Christ's sacrifice. Believers can confidently declare their freedom from sin, condemnation, and religious bondage because they have been born into this freedom by God's grace alone.
