Independence is the ability to live your life without being helped or influenced by other people.
John 8:32-36, John 15:5
If the son of God makes you unquestionably free, you are free indeed!
There is nothing like independence because life cannot be run independently (Matthew 6:24), you are either dependent on God or the devil
Absolute freedom without caution means chaos & destruction would be the order of the day.
If you are born again and still living in sin, it means you are solely dependent on the devil.
