Christians: IS LEGALISIM RELIGION COSMETICS?

Are you trapped in the cycle of PERFORMANCE based religion?





Do you worry about what people say and think about you?





Some one put it this way.....





';Performance based religion will make us do good for the wrong reasons. Pharisees, both those 2000 years ago and modern day ones, are always concerned how they look to others. It's about keeping up appearances, especially to impress those who attend the same church or who have the same list of do's and don'ts. Sometimes when ladies put on their make-up they call it ';putting on their face.'; Legalism is religious cosmetics. Jesus told the Samaritan women ';But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.'; (John 4:23) Grace enables us to be honest. God loves you not because of what you have done for him but because of what Jesus did for us at the cross.'; -

Legalism describes those who are of the works of the law are under a curse (Galatians 3:10). Our Lord Jesus Christ has fulfilled the law for all mankind when He shouted ';It is finished'; on the cross so believers no longer have to obey the law to fulfill righteousness which is already theirs as a gift (Luke 24:44, John 19:28-30, Romans 5:17). We now receive all God's blessings by faith in the finished work of Jesus on the cross and not by our own obedience to the law. God bless you sister Grace.Christians: IS LEGALISIM RELIGION COSMETICS?
