Freedom is only granted us that obedience may be more perfec

Summary

This quote suggests that freedom is not an inherent right, but rather a privilege that is given to us in order to ensure our obedience. It implies that freedom is bestowed upon individuals with the expectation that they will adhere to certain rules or comply with authority. In this context, it serves as a reminder that the granting of freedom is conditional and relies on the idea that obedience and conformity will be more easily achieved when individuals are given a sense of liberation.
