Legalism is one of the most hot-button topics of recent times. I think there are two ditches people fall into regarding what Legalism is and what it isn’t. Some people say, “Everything is legalism!” and others say, “Nothing is legalism!”

In light of these two ditches, what then is Legalism? My succinct definition for Legalism is this: 

Legalism is any standard of righteousness that differs from God’s standard of righteousness, both in salvation and sanctification.


We all understand Legalism in the first matter of salvation. Legalism is when anyone says, “you must do this to be saved.” However, we also see that Legalism can be manifested in sanctification. We examine both of these realities to answer this question, in this week's episode.
