Our Lord asserts that all people are born in bondage to sin. All humans experience the power and pull of sin in their lives. Outside of Christ, we are dead in our sins and under the dominion of Satan. Nevertheless, our Lord holds out the promise of true freedom to all those who truly believe Him and obey Him.
Pastor Linehan teaches us that true followers of Christ will have the evidence of salvation -- a life characterized by freedom from sin. This is not absolute sinless perfectionism, nor is it "works-salvation." Rather, it is a glorious freedom from the guilt and power of sin. Christ gives His followers the ability to hear His voice and the ability to follow Him, so that we are increasingly made holy. He says, "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."
