    Contributed by John Sears on Dec 3, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,765 views

    In a culture where tolerance is the highest virtue and where sincere belief is the only thing important to faith, are Christians too exclusive in believing that Jesus is the only way to eternal life? What does that salvation look like?

    We are not all taking different roads to the same destination. And we will not get there by following the crowd. The road to eternity is, "The Road Less traveled."

    THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED Text: Matthew 7:13-23 Introduction Illustration: “I once read the true story of their English professor who was on her way to class one day.

    Are You A Legalist? Or An Illegalist?

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 15, 2013
     | 3,010 views

    Are you a legalist, or are you an illegalist? In other words, do you follow the law of God, or do you disobey the law of God? It is not a bad thing to be labeled a legalist. Satan has used this creative title to try to deceive many people to disobey God.

    Matthew 7:13-27 Who in this room would consider themselves a legalist? This is the topic that I would like to briefly talk to you about tonight: Legalism, or “The Lie of Legalism.” Since the beginning of the Lord’s church, the devil has held nothing back; He has created so many ...read more

    Right believing leads to right living. Right believing starts on the inside. Right believing is a relationship.

    RECAP – Matt 23:23-28 – the Pharisees made the mistakes of replacing a RELATIONSHIP with Jesus with a RELIGION, and making the OUTWARD more important than the INWARD. No life change can take place without a relationship with Jesus Christ. The Pharisees got the wrong target. ...read more
