624. Christian Hypocrisy: Keeping Portions of the Law; Throwing Out the Rest



622. “Are You Saying People Can Sin as Much as They Want?”
“Are you saying people can go do whatever they want? Are you saying it’s okay for people to sin as much as they want? Commit adultery? Murder?” (Of course, that’s not what we’re saying).
They will proceed to warn the sheep about this radical doctrine of grace that is a dangerous, false teaching in the form of heresy, because of our proclamation that believers in Christ are not under the law that came through the Old Covenant. The law demanded that all of it be kept. Other than Jesus, nobody has ever accomplished this before. Therefore, He fulfilled it on our behalf.

Jesus didn’t come with a new set of rules and statutes that would end up making us better, He came to give us His life and a new heart that has made us like Him.

Law Verses Grace – Which One Gets You Further?
It’s not until we come to the end of ourself and our own self effort that we begin to see that only in and through Jesus (the person of grace) can we live a life of holiness! In fact, when we determine to live only in and through Him we will naturally find ourselves obeying […]

A Different Kind Of New Year’s Resolution
I’ve met some people who really like to make New Year’s Resolutions and some who say, “Nah, that’s not really my thing.” With this being the last day of the year, I was thinking this morning about how my New Year’s Resolution list would look different now, under grace, from how it used to look. […]
