What oppressors does God free His people from?

Answered in 1 source

God frees His people from sin, death, Satan, and self.

In His divine purpose, God promises to liberate His elect from various oppressors: sin, death, Satan, and self. Isaiah 14:25 highlights God's intent to break the yoke of those who oppress, ensuring that the burdens are lifted from His people. First, believers are set free from the bondage of sin through Christ's sacrifice, which removes the penalty and power of sin. Second, the fear of death is abolished as Christ conquered the grave; believers are equipped with eternal life (1 Corinthians 15:55). Third, the power of Satan is rendered ineffective, as he has been defeated by Christ's victory over sin. Finally, believers are liberated from their old, sinful nature through regeneration, receiving a new nature that desires to obey God.
