LAWANDGOSPELLAWANDGOSPEL ALLMIXEDUPALLMIXEDUP *THE LAW AT FULL STRENGTH ALWAYS REVEALS THE “CHECKMATE” - “I’M NOT, I DON’T, AND I CAN’T.” *LAW MIXED OR WEAKENED IS CHARACTERIZED BY DO-ABILITY. *MIXED OR WEAK LAW NEITHER CRUSHES NOR WORKS REPENTANCE.

LAWANDGOSPELLAWANDGOSPEL ALLMIXEDUPALLMIXEDUP *GOD’S LOVE IS IMPORTED INTO LAW, AND IT WEAKENS IT. *GOD’S LAW DEMANDS PERFECT OBEDIENCE, NOT SIMPLY YOUR BEST.

LAWANDGOSPELLAWANDGOSPEL ALLMIXEDUPALLMIXEDUP *WORN-OUT DILUTED LAW, OFTEN INTENDED TO GET CHRISTIANS BUSY IN EVANGELISM *THIS IMPERATIVE IS QUITE DO-ABLE, -NO CRUSHING, NO DESPAIR..

LAWANDGOSPELLAWANDGOSPEL ALLMIXEDUPALLMIXEDUP LAW GOSPEL *THE GOSPEL AT FULL STRENGTH ALWAYS REVEALS THE GRACIOUS GOD WHO GIVES HIS SAVING GIFTS UNCONDITIONALLY IN CHRIST. *WEAKENED GOSPEL GRANTS GIFTS OF GOD THAT ARE SOMETHING LESS THAN FULL PARDON AND SALVATION FOREVER..
