Some puzzling and contradicting statements on freedom. Can you obey and still be free? Faith is a way of knowing and if the way is unreliable you may come to the wrong conclusion. Can you be free if what you know is wrong?
Hi, and welcome to Destee, by the way.
Yes, you can obey and still be free, because it is a choice to obey; no force but simply one choosing not to step out of set borders, laws, rules, and such. If you chose to stay within the boundaries of your own house, but could very well leave whenever, however, you never do simply because you liked it better inside, were you then a prisoner? No, because it was your own choice to stay inside. Had you been held against your will to stay, you then become a prisoner.
Faith is a way of life; it's what has been given so we can know the Way to freedom. It is in no manner unreliable, but when in the Son and the Father, is most reliable.
As for the last question: are you asking me in particular, or just asking in general? Just to be certain.
