Truth Will Set You Free





John 8:32  
32  And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.


To the degree I understand a pertinent truth, and to the degree I implement its corresponding action, is the level of freedom I will experience. Many people can quote this verse but live without the freedom it promises. The mere acquiescing of knowledge is not what produces freedom in this verse. It’s the experiencing of the truth or the implementation of what is known. The Complete Biblical Library Commentary (CBL) says, “The word "know" means "come to know" and connotes a knowledge that is learned through experience.”


3 John 1:2
2  Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.


It is interesting that John hinges prosperity and health on the condition of the soul in the latter part of the verse. As the soul prospers or increases so does my health, and outward prosperity becomes evident. The soul here is referring to the entirety of the inward man which includes his knowledge of truth. As his understanding increases; freedom from sickness and the curses are experienced, and the person lives in this world but is not of this world.

Knowing the truth will produce a saturation of freedom in every area of life allowing the glory of God to flow uninhibited through you.

Understanding the truth + doing the truth = FREEDOM
