Can you define "legalism"? Without a clear definition it is difficult to take these ideas off the page into conversation.

Thank you for your question. "Legalism" here can be defined as the belief that our obedience to God's law and our good deeds are ways of earning salvation, rather than by God's grace alone through faith in Jesus.

God's Word isn't an option or a recommendation. It is a Devine blueprint that we as believers should be willing to obey. My prayer for myself is, Lord, help me to be in full agreement of your Holy Scriptures and fully obey without compromise. This lesson was an extremely an eye opener and it causes you to examine yourself. I love that the content is filled and supported by the Holy Scriptures.
