Christian Freedom in Practice

Colossians 2:16-18 NLT
¹⁶ So don’t let anyone condemn you for what you eat or drink, or for not celebrating certain holy days or new moon ceremonies or Sabbaths.
¹⁷ For these rules are only shadows of the reality yet to come. And Christ himself is that reality.
¹⁸ Don’t let anyone condemn you by insisting on pious self-denial or the worship of angels, saying they have had visions about these things. Their sinful minds have made them proud,..."

Hebrews 8:5 NLT
They serve in a system of worship that is only a •copy, a •shadow of the real one in heaven. For when Moses was getting ready to build the Tabernacle, God gave him this warning: “Be sure that you make everything according to the •pattern I have shown you here on the mountain.”

Hebrews 10:1Βͺ NLT
The old system under the law of Moses was only a •shadow, a •dim preview of the good things to come, •not the good things themselves.

Galatians 5:1 NLT
So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery to the law.

Galatians 5:4 NLT
For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace.

Galatians 5:16, 18 NLT
¹⁶ So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won’t be doing what your sinful nature craves.
¹⁸ But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses.


Galatians 4:31 NLT
So, dear brothers and sisters, we are not children of the slave woman; we are children of the free woman.

《"In view of the freedom that Christ has won for them, the Colossian believers must not listen to those who try to force them to obey the rules and regulations of the Israelite law. Practices taught in the law may be compared to shadows. They are not solid or permanent, but their existence enables the viewer to know that there is some real object that casts the shadows. That real object is Jesus Christ. Now that he has come, the shadows are of no further interest. Christian life and growth come from God through a direct relationship between the believer and Christ."》
