The Christian is free from all other human beings. He does not have to live over against others, controlled by their actions and responses. Rather, he lives according to Christ's commands. This is Christian freedom. It is a freedom unknown by others.

It is the Lord Christ when we serve!

We have solved, by fair experiment, the great and interesting question whether freedom of religion is compatible with order in government and obedience to the laws.
