religion vs. the gospel
Yesterday Mark Driscoll spoke in chapel. I was really looking forward to it because I hear good things about his preaching. He spoke about the difference between religion and the gospel. Here are the nine points he made...and if you want to hear it for yourself check out the podcast. I highly recommend it!
1. Religion says if you obey then God will love you. The gospel says because God loves you, you want to obey.
2. Religion is prone to see good and bad people. The gospel sees bad people and Jesus.
3. Religion is about getting as much as you can from God. The gospel is about getting God.
4. Religion sees hardship as punishment. The gospel sees it as loving direction from a good dad.
