Discover what difference reading these scriptures while Thinking Leaglism or Feeling Grace can make.
The Grace Language of Jesus
SPIRITUALITY CAN CHANGE OUR LIFE
Jesus took legalistic words and gave them the grace meaning to consciously feel the difference being in the Presence of God in Him.
Legalism is idolatry, depending on something outside ourselves to get what God has already given to us inside our selves. Grace is self-correcting.
Romans 7:6 - But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.
Grace people love legalists. People say they have no taste, but they love them gracefully!
Think Legalism: Let you hear audibly.
Feel Grace: Let you feel consciously.
OLD TESTAMENT: Jeremiah 18:1-11
| Think Legalism: | I will let you hear my words. |

Feel Grace: Meditate is to feel the meaning of the words.
