#325 - Joby Martin // What If Your Faith Is Quietly Becoming A Transaction

We dig into Galatians 5 and Paul’s blunt warning that adding anything to Jesus turns grace into a dead end. We remind ourselves why the gospel has to stay simple because it leaks out of our minds and we drift back to earning. 
• Judaizers in Galatia teaching Jesus plus circumcision 
• why adding any requirement implies Christ’s work is unfinished 
• “severed from Christ” and the seriousness of law based justification 
• faith as whole trust in Christ’s cross and resurrection 
• modern works based righteousness through baptism, communion, tongues, confession, penance, or performance 
• obedience as evidence of salvation rather than a prerequisite 
• a self check for where we are believing a false gospel 
• Jesus plus nothing equals everything
