Freedom Quote by John Bevere
“The truth is evident. There is no freedom but instead bondage and control in rebellion. It is the opening of the soul to demonic oppression and control. Paul reemphasized this point: Don't you realize that you can choose your own master? You can choose sin with death or else obedience with acquittal. The one to whom you offer yourself-he will take you and be your master and you will be his slave.”
