WALKING IN GRACE: LEGALISM, THE DEADLY ENEMY OF GRACE

Review

Humanism is the worst heresy in the present day church.

To show grace is to extend favor or kindness to one who doesn’t deserve it, who can never earn it and who can never repay it.

There is nothing you can do to make God love you less and nothing you can do to make God love you more.

“Without faith it is impossible to please God.”

Is your walk of discipleship made up of you trying to do things for Christ?

or in allowing Christ to do things IN and THROUGH you?

To be in Jesus is not only an outward profession, but also an inward change of heart and indwelling of His Holy Spirit.

We are no longer slaves to sin.

Just as you inject a turkey with all kinds of spices, Jesus desires to inject those who live by grace with all of His great attributes.

When we live the Christian life by the power of the Spirit it is an easy yoke to bear.

Romans 7:4-6

Legalism is a system in which a person seeks to gain God’s acceptance or blessings by what he does.

At the root of legalism is PRIDE.

It is an obsessive conformity to an artificial standard put in place by men so they can exalt themselves.

TIMEOUT

TWO IMPORTANT QUESTIONS:

After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?”

Galatians 3:1-3- “You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. I

would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard? Are you so

foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?”

When Jesus paid for your sins they were PAID IN FULL!

“Grace says you have nothing to give, nothing to earn, nothing to pay. You couldn’t if you tried!”

Is your main concern to please men or God?

Galatians 1:10, “For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men?

If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ.”

When we focus on these ESSENTIALS it keeps us from getting caught up in the NONESSENTIALS. Peanut Butter!

VERSE 4-The ONLY life that is fruitful is the life of Jesus Christ which lives in you and me!

The fruit that is mentioned here falls in three categories: Character Conduct Converts.

We see this desire to change for the better in other relationships.

VERSE 6- This ability to do good works is done ONLY by the power of the Spirit that lives within the lives of the followers of Jesus.

This FREEDOM given by Jesus is a freedom FROM the slavery of guilt, sin’s power, God’s wrath, satanic and demonic

authority, shame, other people’s opinions, expectations or obligations.

This FREEDOM given by Jesus is a freedom TO see the power of God transform your spirit, to see the power of God

work through you, to know the love of God in a relationship with Him, the joy of Jesus and His peace that passes understanding.
