One thing we took away from our discipleship class is that grace changes our relationship with rules, but it doesnโt remove our need for boundaries.
Sometimes, we think that because weโre under grace, weโre free to do whatever we want. But grace doesnโt make us reckless. Instead, it gives us security in who we are in Christ, so we donโt have to keep testing every boundary just to prove that weโre free.
Rules and boundaries arenโt always there just to restrict us. They can protect us, protect other people, and help us understand how to use our freedom responsibly.
And most importantly, we donโt follow rules so God will love us. We follow them because we already know that we are loved by God.
Galatians 5:13 reminds us that we are called to freedom, but that freedom shouldnโt become an opportunity to indulge in sin. Instead, weโre called to serve one another in love.
So maybe instead of asking, โHow far can I go without technically breaking the rule?โ we should ask:
โHow can I use my freedom in a way that honors God and loves others?โ
Because grace isnโt a reason to ignore boundaries.
Grace gives us the freedom to live responsibly, knowing that we are already loved. ๐ค
