First way of understanding: to be

free means to be true to ourselves.

In the Creation story, we learn that we are good. Our purpose is to share the love and goodness of the God. When

we do this, we become true to ourselves.

Hence, being free = being true to ourselves. being true to ourselves = being good

being free = being good

Every person then is given freedom because we are created to be

good.

Second way of understanding: to be free means removing

the things that bind us

Things that bind us (bondages): addictionsvicesselfish actions Sin

Hence, when we sin, we lose our freedom. We do

not become true to ourselves.

True freedom is attained through following Christ. We

are free because of Christ.

SITUATION ANALYSIS: I AM FREE. I AM BORN THIS WAY

GOOGLE CLASSROOM ACTIVITY

Johnny is a Grade 6 student who "loves" to play computer games. He loves to play a lot that he would spend his entire weekend in front of the computer to finish a game.

One week before the Quarterly Test he downloaded a very

interesting game that he wanted to play and finish so desperately. However, his mom told him that he should start studying or else

he would fail the test. Johnny was in a very dicult situation. He did not know what to do so

he called his friend on the phone and asked for some advice.

1. Is Johnny living the true meaning of freedom? Why or why not?

2. If you were Johnny's friend what advice would you give him? Why would you give that advice?

How does Jesus help us to be free?How can sin make us love our

freedom?
