Affirming the Hopelessness of Legalism (Galatians 5:2-6) | Rewind Wednesdays

There really is no hope in legalism. Most of the people you interact with are trusting in their own good works for salvation. You cannot make yourself acceptable to God with your good works. Can you explain this to the legalist around you? Can you explain why legalism is hopeless? Can you show them that a snowball has a better chance in hell than they do in earning their salvation? The enemy of legalism is freedom.

"Look: I, Paul, say to you that if you accept circumcision, Christ will be of no advantage to you. I testify again to every man who accepts circumcision that he is obligated to keep the whole law. You are severed from Christ, you who would be justified by the law; you have fallen away from grace. For through the Spirit, by faith, we ourselves eagerly wait for the hope of righteousness. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith working through love." - Galatians 5:2-6
