Category: Christ vs Law for Sanctification

Christ is not only our Righteous, he is our sanctification. Most Christians believe that once we are justified, we are to go back to the law for the rule of life and for sanctification.

Further Meditation on the Law of Life vs. the Law of Sin and Death . Condemnation is the main way that sin has its hold on us.  We are not talking about condemnation from the wrath of God (that was taken care of by the blood of Jesus in the heavens in Romans 3).  Condemnation in…

The Religious Performance of the Flesh.

Posted on May 13, 2022May 13, 2022 by David

The flesh in God’s view, is not just your sinfulness.  A lot of people think that the flesh refers to the sinfulness, so if you are walking in the flesh, you are walking after the lusts and doing “bad things”.  It is true that the flesh has lusts.  However, what the flesh desires is not…

The Complexity of Our Situation in the Flesh and the Crises it Should Produce

Posted on May 11, 2022May 11, 2022 by David

“I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the law of God after the inward man: But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is…

Holiness in the Christian Life – a Matter for the Physician, not the Law Giver

Posted on April 28, 2022April 28, 2022 by David

If you want to talk about holiness in the Christian life, please see it not as a matter of a servant learning to be a “better person” so he can get a “Reward” and make his “boss happier.”That’s not what this is. This is a sick person being nursed back to life very gently by…

Progressive sanctification does not exist

Posted on October 31, 2019April 24, 2022 by David

The word ‘sanctification’ has become another one of those words that makes people uncomfortable, like ‘repent’, where it needs to be defined otherwise legalistic definitions automatically spring to mind and weigh you down. I read an article on sanctification yesterday and it was full of requirements, burdens, unrealistic expectations and false doctrine. I think what…

Grace vs. a Works “Exchange” system.

Posted on January 9, 2017April 24, 2022 by

The Bible doesn’t really use the term “legalism.” The Bible uses the word “works,” but it basically means the same thing. It’s really critical that we understand God’s system of grace and faith and how it differs from a meritorious / works approach to God. Grace “works” by faith, and Merit systems “work” by effort, work, and personal merit.

Thoughts on Legalism vs. Grace

Posted on February 10, 2014April 24, 2022 by

Do we realize that we’re struggling with a legalistic view?  Here’s a test: If you believe that you will or won’t be blessed by God, or close to God because of something you’re doing or not doing, you’ve stumbled into legalism.
