Answer:
freedom comes only from making choices that have no adverse natural consequences.
You can be said to be “free” to jump from a towering cliff - you are not free, however, to escape the consequences of your choice. You can imagine yourself “free” to seek your own self-interest without regard to the effect of your actions on others - as many do, only to then wonder why happiness and peace of mind escapes them.
That’s why Jesus said that “the truth will set you free.” Only by knowing the truth, whether it’s the truth about physical laws or spiritual laws, do we gain the power to make the right choices that have consistently beneficial consequences
