Episode 177 - An Image of Divine Authority

Since the time the perfect Law was given to Moses, man has tried to better those laws by adding, subtracting, modifying, and tweaking the laws. This practice was most evident with regard to the laws the Pharisees enforced at the time of Jesus. And this endeavor by some continued as the Church was born, and still continues today. At no point has man improved on the laws - we have only made them worse by adding to them, by making them impossible to even attempt to keep, by redefining them in ways they were never intended. Unfortunately, many churches today - either by choice, or by ignorance, continue the practice of heaping rules on top of the Gospel, works on top of Grace, and as a result cause confusion and frustration. This is not what was ever intended.

Join Pastor Jason as he discusses the problems of legalism, how Jesus addressed this issue, and how this applies to us today.
