1 peter 2: 16 Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.Freedom is often misunderstood. Common wisdom thinks that freedom is being able to do whatever you want to do. Being free is being able to sleep around, get blaked, spend money, live large. That's not freedom, that's slavery. Sex, alcohol, money, power, image become the slavemasters - you end up spending all the time, money and effort you've got on chasing those things. True freedom comes from submission to God, where everything else takes on it's rightful place and we're free to enjoy created things while worshipping the creator.
Freedom and grace in christian circles are often used as a cover up for evil, as this verse tells us not to do. God's grace is not a licence to sin, knowing that I'll be forgiven. If I think it is, then I never really understood it to start with.
