That He Might Be Preeminent - Part 5
Part 5: The Problem with Legalism
Even if the Colossians managed to overcome the heresy being taught in their church, they still needed to watch out for legalism. We can be doctrinally correct, morally upright, and still oppose the way of Jesus. Legalism is sneaky, because it feels like good Christianity. In fact, most Christians today have heard the term, but probably can’t identify it. In this passage, we’ll see what Paul warns us against.
