Why is the gospel offensive to the legalist?

The gospel is a message of freedom, assurance, and inheritance, but it can be offensive to legalists. Legalists see righteousness as a matter of law-keeping and are offended by the notion that Christ’s righteousness secures salvation and gives confidence in our relationship with Him. The gospel emphasizes inheritance as the positive focus, as we see in the Epistles. According to 1 Peter 1:3-4, we have been born again to a “living hope” and an “inheritance incorruptible” that is reserved for us. The gospel is Good News that God has made peace with man and has good will toward man, but legalists tend to focus on God’s wrath towards sin and find it difficult to accept that God has made peace with man. Our growth in the Christian life comes as we learn to stand fast in the liberty that we have in Christ, relying on the Spirit and enjoying the graciousness and goodness of God.

Why was the timing of Abraham’s circumcision so important?

Learn about the importance of justification by faith alone in the Old Testament, specifically through the timing of Abraham’s circumcision. While circumcision was seen as a sign of righteousness and faith, it was not the cause of Abraham’s justification. Rather, it was a seal of the righteousness he already had through faith. This emphasizes the importance of justification by faith alone, as opposed to works or law-keeping. Christ is our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption, and Old Testament saints were also justified by faith apart from works. Our faith in Christ is what justifies us, and our works are simply a reflection of that faith.
