Understanding Freedom 2
Corinthians 3: 17-18
Misconceptions About Freedom
·
freedom is granted by government
“There is not a truth
to be gathered from history more certain, or more momentous, than this: that
civil liberty cannot long be separated from religious liberty without danger,
and ultimately without destruction to both. Wherever religious liberty exists,
it will first or last, bring in and establish political liberty. It yet remains
a problem to be solved in human affairs, whether any free government can be
permanent, where public worship of God, and the support of religion, constitute
no part of the policy or duty of the state in any assignable shape.” Joseph
