Because Rules Weren’t Enough




The Perfecting Church show

Summary: Rules were not enough. They never were and they never will be. When Jesus arrived, the religious leaders of His day were neck deep in rules. They had added an elaborate system of no's, cant's and dont's to the orginal 10 commandments God had given to Moses. But the rules were and still are incapable of giving us what we all desperately need, a relationship with a living and present God. The rules were given to show us a need we had but couldn't see, a need that only His grace could meet. He isn't the God who simply stands over us with rules. He is the God who kneels down with us over and over again. He freely gives us a grace that saves and provides the strength we so desperately need to stand with Him.
