Summary

Do you think Christianity has too many rules to follow? Does the Bible seem like a book full of restrictive commands to you? Is it just moralism? No one can live up to them, so why try at all? Isn’t the Bible outdated anyway? These are objections we have heard or thought. The Bible does have commands! And the gospel is about grace! The law actually offers hope and joy. It is a gracious gift from God, and while Christ frees us from guilt and shame, He also empowers us to obey and put His holiness on display to a world in need.    Connect with us:  www.dailygracepodcast.com  www.thedailygraceco.com  https://www.facebook.com/thedailygraceco/  https://www.instagram.com/thedailygraceco/    Questions?
