Exploring the Impact of Legalism on Church Hypocrisy

In this episode, Mark Clifton, Mark Hallock, and JimBo Stewart discuss an article from Sam Rainer on some ways a church can become hypocritical.

1. The church becomes fixated on external preferences and not internal devotion.
2. The church falls in love with commitments but neglects people.
3. The church leaders seek religious prominence instead of humble service.
4. The church hides double standards with artificial religious rules.
5. The church kills the heart of worship with a religious presentation.
6. The church adds to the gospel to burden people.
