Shooting the Boogeyman - The Jesus Trip

About this sermon

The same argument that religious opponents threw at the Apostle Paul continues to be the number one paranoid charge against the gospel - the idea that grace is a license to sin. This false idea of grace is the boogeyman legalists love to attack. In this episode, John clearly lays out the attempt on the part of religionists to falsely pit grace against things like character and personal responsibility. In the name of "balance" many try to de-emphasize grace and shift the burden over to human willpower. This assumption that grace is only "part of the equation" in the Christian life keeps many in bondage. In fact, grace is the source of all godly character - but it does not merely work alongside the human will as a partner. Grace infuses our identity with new desires and irresistible urges to be the happy holy people we truly are in Christ. **WARNING** John calls religious people names in this video (such as ding dong and knucklehead) ... for reasons of privacy, Christian ethics and lawsuits, their real names have been protected.
