00:00:00.000 Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request.
00:00:03.360 If you've been blessed by our content and you like this show,
00:00:06.420 would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review?
00:00:09.760 This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do
00:00:12.860 to ensure that this content gets out to as many people as possible.
00:00:17.520 Thanks.
00:00:19.700 Jesus said,
00:00:20.800 Man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.
00:00:25.440 You're listening to Daily Truth.
00:00:29.320 Daily Truth
00:00:30.000 This is why we don't make a bunch of extra biblical rules.
00:00:33.220 This is why.
00:00:34.540 Because inevitably you'll sin.
00:00:37.960 You'll sin.
00:00:39.220 And this is an important lesson for us to learn.
00:00:42.020 I'm not saying heresy, but I am saying sin.
00:00:47.060 Did you know that there's a difference
00:00:48.840 between the heresy of legalism and the sin of legalism?
00:00:53.060 See, the heresy of legalism teaches
00:00:55.040 that obedience to the law of God
00:01:00.000 is a means of salvation.
00:01:02.660 That's the heresy of legalism.
00:01:05.120 The sin of legalism is to add the commandments of men
00:01:10.420 to the commandments of God.
00:01:12.260 So you can actually sin in legalism.
00:01:15.720 This is important for us to learn as a congregation,
00:01:17.880 as we strive to challenge one another with convictions,
00:01:20.900 but also be charitable.
00:01:22.440 So this is a good lesson for us as just a church family.
00:01:25.600 Not the heresy of legalism, that says do this and live.
00:01:30.000 Now the gospel says, live by the free grace of God
00:01:34.440 and therefore do this.
00:01:36.360 So the gospel is, because we live, we do this.
00:01:40.940 Whereas the law says, do this and you will live.
00:01:46.520 Now we love the law because the law points us to Christ.
00:01:49.240 It helps us see our need for Christ.
00:01:50.900 And once we've received Christ freely,
00:01:53.120 not by what we do, but by what he has done,
00:01:56.220 the law then shows us how to respond,
00:01:58.560 not how to merit God's favor,
00:02:00.860 but how to respond in gratitude to God's favor,
00:02:03.400 which we've freely received by grace through faith
00:02:05.840 in Jesus Christ.
00:02:07.100 Does that make sense?
00:02:08.660 So that being said, the heresy of legalism is do this and live.
00:02:15.380 Obedience to the law, the doctrine of obedience to the law
00:02:18.760 as a means of salvation.
00:02:20.340 The sin of legalism is to add extra biblical commands,
00:02:25.160 the commands of men to the commands of God.
00:02:29.820 Oh, hi.
