Legalism (2014)
Manage episode 429820417 series 3222307
Legalism is the arrogant pretension of fulfilling God’s plan through your human ability. Legalism and grace are mutually exclusive. Legalism manipulates, controls, judges you, and tries to force you to live a certain way. “Don’t judge lest you be judged” (Matt 7:1). God has provided you with problem-solving devices.

Do you have enough freedom in Christ to live your life?
