In Galatians 5:13, the apostle Paul talks about using our freedom to serve. In 1 Peter 2:16, Peter writes this to us: “Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.” We are free, but in this freedom we willingly serve each other and willingly serve God.
