Steering Clear of Religious Traditionalism
Jesus said “My yoke is easy, and my burden is light” (Matthew 11:30). But have you noticed that there’s a temptation to add additional requirements, laws or traditions to our walk with the Lord? With all those extra regulations, the faith that Jesus designed as an asset to guide us becomes an obstacle that we can trip over! On this edition of Focal Point, Mike Fabarez challenges us to reevaluate those religious requirements we hold onto.Every believer occasionally struggles with doubt over their salvation. This is born out of guilt and discouragement of their sin they believe is too big or egregious for God to forgive.
This can lead Christians to underestimate or disbelieve the complete sacrifice for sin accomplished on the cross. Want to understand God's complete forgiveness and wiping away of sin?
