    Legalism is a real temptation for us because we're wired to DO something. We have learned that we earn our bread by the sweat of our brow and we can't help but apply that to our spiritual life.

    INTRODUCTION The book of Galatians has six chapters and they are easily divided into three themes. The first two chapters are doctrinal. Paul reminded the believers the Gospel of grace is the only true Gospel. The two middle chapters are personal, and the last two chapters are practical. ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,477 views

I am going to take a couple messages and jump into the entire pool of what legalism looks like for us today. We ...read more

We spent the last message covering the statements a legalist might say, the specifics of legalism as far as the actual fundamental definitions of this way of ...read more

    After the death of Elvis Presley it was fairly common to read headlines in Tabloids: “I was Elvis’ Love Child” or “Elvis’ Ghost is My Father”.
