Motivations | Week 5 | You Should Submit To Authority

This morning, we will talk about a specific topic in the Bible that involves external actions. This topic is important to Jesus and thus should be important to us. The topic is, “Submission to Authority!” We will consider this morning how you can value this teaching and obey this desire of Jesus without slipping into legalism. Legalism is always a dangerous enemy, a dangerous mindset lurking in the Christian life. Unfortunately, as an enemy, it is subtle, it is crafty, and it is deadly. Every believer fits into one of two categories: (1) They are currently a legalist OR (2) They are a recovering legalist with ongoing legalistic tendencies.
