Freedom is Not Free

"And the chief captain answered, With a great sum obtained I this freedom. And Paul said, But I was free born." (Acts 22:28 King James Version)

Starting February 25 until sometimes the last day of the month, the Philippines is celebrating the "February Revolution". It was the time when the People's Power toppled the power driven government of the then president Ferdinand E. Marcos. Many have concluded that the 1986 February EDSA Revolution was the end of dictatorship with its new gained freedom!

Only God can put a price tag on true freedom. Freedom is not cheap; be it in the tribe, on the most dangerous prison on earth, or freedom from heaven. It will always costs someone to attain freedom. A lady was interviewed in the show of "The Kelly File" at Fox News said; "There's not a price on freedom. You can't buy freedom, and it's me now- but tomorrow it's going to be you. You've got to wake up". And that's even more conservative in her view, perspective and belief on freedom.

The word "Freedom" is one of the priceless or costliest words in our modern dictionary. It costs God the Father His One and only Son to die on the cross for our sins. (John 3:16) The Holy Bible has the answer for any question regarding freedom. But notice here the Words of the Lord Jesus Christ; "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed."
