Take Five: Performance-Based Christianity
from The UnSunday Show · host Mike Adams
In Matthew 15 Jesus is talking to the scribes and Pharisees when he says this:"You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said: ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’" Matthew 15:7–9This is a description of performance-based religion. It replaces what matters with what doesn't matter. It replaces what's true (justification by faith) with what's not true (justification by faith plus works). It's a manipulation of the truth of the gospel into a non-gospel. Let's take five and talk about it.--------------Other Places You’ll Find Me:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@unsundayshow
