we welcome you now to a true church perspective with pastor g craig lewis religion is not

legalism legalism is excessive adherence to the law that's what legalism is religion is not

legalism excessive adherence to the law is not possible without hypocrisy so anybody

that's saying i like like the rich young rule is said hey i've obeyed all the commandments all my life

never did anything wrong you're hypocrite because there's no way you can do that or there would be no cause

or no reason for Jesus to come do

what he did right colosh is two and twenty wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the

rudiments of the world why as though living in the world are you subject to ordinances touch not

this taste not that handle not this which are all to perish you uh with the using after

the commandments and doctrines of men so basically the bible saying we're not talking about legalism here

nobody needs to try to be legalistic and tell you what day you can worship on and tell you what

you have to wear and and what you have to look like and in order to be a minister you have to have a clergy collar and tell you what you have to wear and what you have to look like.

And in order to be a minister, you have to have a clergy collar.

And then you got to be ordained, you know, through a ceremony with a sword on your shoulder.

And I knight thee, arise.

I remember that bugs, buddy, cartoon.

That was hilarious. But, yeah yeah so you know when when ordination

you know what paul did when he ordained the word ordained that was used to describe what paul did

was select all he did was select.

That was it.

Wasn't no ceremony.

He ain't put a collar on him.
