In this episode of Born to Win!, host Timothy Luke will explore an important topic that Christians struggle with: “Where do I draw the line between law and grace?”
Is it grace or is it works that offer the key to salvation?
GRACE. The teaching of grace has often come at a loss of personal responsibility. Believers are boldly told that if they think there is anything more required of them than simply a confession of faith, then they are adding to the conditions of salvation and thus playing with heresy.
LAW AND WORKS. Others take the words of Jesus, “If you love me, keep my commandments,” and place those words in a preconceived backdrop of religion that can lead adherents into a works-based mind-set.
DISCUSSION. Where do we draw the line? What is the proper way to discern between legalism and grace? How do we make sense of “If you love me, keep my commandments?” What was and is Jesus talking about? What can we learn today to break free of the “just as you are” myths that bind us to a spiritually stagnant status quo? What can we see in scripture to release us from a faulty works-based spirit of religion?
Join Timothy Luke as he explores God’s heart for true religion and makes sense of this important issue on Born to Win! Calls are welcome toward the end of the podcast, after Timothy announces that the phone lines are open.
Born to Win! explores various topics from a Biblical perspective. Join Timothy Luke each Thursday night for a look a God from a Christian perspective. He has a prayer and discussion forum at BornToWinForum.com.
