In the Bible, the words “free” and “freedom” are often used as metaphor. They are used to talk about how a Christian is no longer controlled by their own desire to sin. That is, Jesus causes Christians to be able to choose to obey and serve God (see: Romans 6:17-23; 8:2; 2 Corinthians 3:17). Believers are free to serve God (see: John 8:32-36; Romans 8:21; Galatians 5:1; see also: Isaiah 61:1-2; Luke 4:18-19).

Paul talked about Christians having freedom from the law of Moses. That is, Christians do not need to obey the law of Moses (see: Romans 6:14; 7-8; 10:4; see also: John 1:17). However, Paul did not mean Christians can do whatever they want to do. Paul did not want Christians to sin. God will still punish Christians if they continue to sin. Paul wanted Christians to love God and love other people. Christians should not become slaves to sin or to the law of Moses again (see: Matthew 22:36-40; Romans 6:1-14; 1 Corinthians 9:21; Galatians 5:1, 13; 1 Peter 2:16; James 1:25; 2:12).
