There is some very sound advice on the way we should live and exercise our freedom by Peter in Chapter 2 of his letter to the church, verses 15-17 from The Message Bible: "It is God's will that by doing good, you might cure the ignorance of the fools who think you're a danger to society. Exercise your freedom by serving God, not by breaking the rules. Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government." Whether dealing with friends, family, co-workers, or government officials and authorities; we are called to exercise our freedom by putting others above ourselves and serving them. The proper exercise of freedom will treat others with dignity, love and respect. This serves as a great testimony to spiritual freedom and its use.
