We have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, in order to know what has been freely given to us by God. 1 Corinthians 2:12
The liberty of Christ was ours at the moment we received Him as Savior. But if this internal gift is not released externally through obedience, we may never experience it. When we receive Christ as Savior, we receive His liberating Spirit, but we must understand that the freedom never leaves the bounds of His Spirit. Therefore, our liberation is expressed as reality only in the places of our lives where the free Spirit of God is released. We are free when, and only when, we allow Him to be in control.
