MORAL LIBERTY.

MORAL LIBERTY.

Moral freedom is  inescapable to the human being, we must be aware of the good and the evil, as responsible beings, different from animals that are “programmed” but have no freedom, the have  instinct but no consciousness, they do not  see the difference between right and wrong, but we do, thanks to our conscience.

Our moral freedom is rooted in our reason and will, and catholic persons are expected to    answer for ourselves, of our own free willpower in free manner. When we surrender us to love of God and do good things in our best possible way, that makes us more free and more persons as we dispose of ourselves according to the will of thy Father.

Liberty (freedom) is not a purpose, it is a gift from our Creator to be used in a responsible way in all that is truly good, so liberty is for the persecution of good in general. We give glory to God as we  freely do good things.

There is not absolute liberty there are conditions that exist in out context they may be of several kinds:  1) genetic , geographic, chronological, etc. we do not pick them, they simply are given to us. Also 2) there are three terms that limit our freedom:  they implore us—they stimulate us and they support us.

Without the two precedent realities there would not be real liberty.

Our liberty is not always the same it varies and we have to consider it as a seed that has to flourish, since it changes, can grow or diminish, mature or weaken.

A mature liberty is responsible and has compromise in truth and love, it strengthens and grows.  The human being with full freedom chooses deeper due to its  better image of God. His  adherence is with true happiness.

The pursue of liberty is mysteriously inclined to abandon the aperture to good in general and to the truth, that is to God, and we feel that we should persecute transient objects, and this tangles our opening to real liberty and auspicious contradictions. Jesus Christ liberated us precisely so as to be really free.

We are responsible of our acts in the measure in which they depend of our free will, on the use of our liberty, ignorance, lack of notice, fear,  established habits, passion movements,  can diminish impotability. For an act to be impotable it is needed its previsibility. But the directly wanted act is always impotable to the actor.

In our inner will we always look for the truth and we do it in relation to the goodness or wickedness of our acts concerning  the sense of life.

To be truly human beings we must  submit to the creational scheme of God, this is our adjustment to the Divine Truth, there nis where we find the true sense of ou lives.
