Freedom in Christ is freedom from the slavery to fear and a freedom to live as one in whom God dwells. Elijah saw a mighty victory in 1 Kings, but submitted again to slavery to fear. In Luke 9, the Samaritans and some possible disciples chose to submit to their old life through their fear to be with God and allow God to be with them. This is what Paul was concerned about for the Galatian Christians and why he teaches them to live in fellowship with Christ and Christ with them. This is perfect freedom.
