The Cure for Legalism

Morning Service
Jan 11, 2026

Paul confronts the churches in Galatia with the folly of legalism—exposing the danger of drifting away from grace into self-reliance. Paul reminds the Galatians how clearly the gospel of Christ had been preached to them. He unmasks the charm of legalism—its appeal to pride, control, and moral superiority—showing its power to bewitch sincere believers. The cure for legalism is not deeper resolve, but clearer vision. As we look to the cross, we see the clearest picture of our Father’s love for us. There, we can rest in the perfect righteousness of our Redeemer.
