This is the first part of a 6-part series on legalism.
Legalism is defined as "strict, literal, or excessive conformity to the law or to a religious or moral code." As such and as this series hopes to prove, it is directly opposed to the freedom Jesus purchased for us.
Legalism is not a benign issue in the Church. This is not a mere difference of opinion on how Christians ought to live. The root of legalism, what everyone cannot see because it's buried and hidden - is a deadly, cancerous deception that has metastasized dangerously over the decades and cultivated a culture of spiritual death among us.
Sound dramatic? Decide for yourself at the conclusion of this series.
While every generation has been affected and impacted by legalism in the Church, we believe the Millennial generation has felt the full brunt of its impact. We have walked away from God in droves. Now, our children don't even believe in God.
This is unacceptable to us.
We Millennials, today's parents, must course correct. The Freeborn Podcast is a response to this issue. We must first see legalism for what it really is - an an ugly, evil, suppressive force - and then we must understand biblical freedom - the blood-bought antidote to this curse.
A generation powerfully and knowledgeably walking in freedom and truth can do much to turn things around! This episode is all about the dream that changed everything.
