Confronting Legalism
from Bethany Church of Canby · host Jeff Jennings
It wasn’t that Jesus didn’t wash his hands; it was that Jesus didn’t respect their extra-biblical customs. This was the conflict between the legalism of the Pharisees, and the deeper, truer, internal righteousness Jesus was seeking. Legalism wants to work from the outside in, where the Gospel works from the inside out. Let’s take a look at some of the symptoms of legalism and see how the Gospel Solution is a soft pillow heart.
