Four Types Of Legalism

Dr. Owen Strachan defines legalism and identifies four major forms of legalism: salvific legalism, sanctificatory legalism, ecclesial legalism, and public legalism. He emphasizes the importance of the authority of Scripture and warns against adding to what the Bible teaches. Strachan highlights the need for wisdom in navigating the gray areas of the Christian life and the danger of becoming legalistic in our pursuit of obedience. He also discusses the regulative principle of worship and the freedom we have in corporate worship, while cautioning against legalistic standards. Finally, he reminds listeners that we are under a new covenant in Christ and are called to follow God's Word as our ultimate authority.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
