🔥 Are you serving God out of fear or grace? This powerful sermon exposes how tradition legalism and sanctification legalism replace the gospel with man-made rules and performance-based Christianity. What You'll Discover: In this eye-opening message on legalism in church, Pastor Fortunato tackles two dangerous forms of spiritual bondage that plague Independent Baptist churches and Christian communities today: ✝️ Tradition Legalism - The heart's desire to add or change scriptures with man-made rules. Learn why conformity without examination violates biblical principles found in 1 Thessalonians 5:21, 1 John 4:1, and 2 Timothy 2:15. Discover how to discern truth and avoid spiritual abuse that demands blind obedience. ✝️ Sanctification Legalism - Understanding why performance-based behavior modification cannot replace grace-based transformation. See how legalistic systems use shame, guilt, and constant surveillance to control Christians instead of trusting the sufficiency of God's grace. Biblical Truth Covered: • Why you must examine, prove, study, and search Scripture (not just conform) • How shame about inherent worth maintains legalistic control • The difference between Catholic confession and Baptist legalism (same circus, different monkeys!) • Why time and chance happen to all - your circumstances don't determine your righteousness • How to serve the Lord in any career without hierarchy of acceptable life choices (Colossians 3:23-24) • Understanding that God's grace sanctifies you, not your good works (Acts 20:32) • Freedom from spiritual burnout and fear-based living
