As the United States of America celebrates Independence Day on July 4, it’s worth noting the nation was founded upon the idea that God created human beings to be free. The Declaration of Independence states that people “are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
But what is “liberty,” exactly? Is freedom based upon the country where you live, or can it have a deeper meaning?
We as believers have to look at the word freedom thru a Kingdom lens.
Mientras los Estados Unidos de América celebran el Día de la Independencia el 4 de julio, vale la pena señalar que la nación se fundó sobre la idea de que Dios creó a los seres humanos para que fueran libres. La Declaración de Independencia establece que las personas “son dotadas por su Creador de ciertos derechos inalienables, entre los que se encuentran la vida, la libertad y la búsqueda de la felicidad”.
Pero, ¿qué es "libertad", exactamente? ¿La libertad se basa en el país donde vives o puede tener un significado más profundo?
Nosotros, como creyentes, tenemos que mirar la palabra libertad a través de los lentes del Reino de Dios.
