Episode 466 Show Notes
From the Show
We don’t need to tone down our desire for obedience. I think sometimes there are some really good Christian practices that people identify as legalistic, but they are really just things we ought to be doing. Going to church every Sunday is not legalistic…disciplining ourselves to pray, reading Scripture, meditating on God’s word—these are all really good things we ought to be doing to grow in our relationship with the Lord.

Questions in this Episode
1. I’m trying to do something good that was placed on my heart to help some people out. I’ve been praying for God to help me so that I can help them, but I haven’t received anything. I get discouraged when nothing seems to happen. I believe God placed it on my heart to help them, but why doesn’t anything happen when I pray about it?
2. I believe Christians are baptized by the Holy Spirit. I read a book regarding the filling of the Spirit as though it were a special gift or something. I was a little confused by it.
3. Several decades ago I had hallucinations of being in hell. They were very real and I'm wondering now if I'm saved. I've accepted Jesus but it's hard for me to believe.

4. How do we balance our desire for obedience with legalism? avoiding legalism
