Episode notes
Grace Replaced By Moralism
- John Moffitt argues grace was replaced by moralism, pietism, and self-help in modern Christianity.
- He claims this shift strips the church of Christ's supernatural sustaining power.
Enemy Targets The Gospel First
- Satan targets the gospel because grace is the Christian's greatest power against the kingdom of darkness.
- De-emphasizing Christ's sufficiency advances Satan's agenda in the church, Moffitt warns.
Preach Grace, Not Constant Condemnation
- Do not replace the gospel with the law; instead, preach Christ crucified and emphasize grace for sustenance.
- Restore sinners gently and offer grace rather than constant salvation doubts and condemnation.
