Whole Bible Instruction: Balance the Word, Do What Jesus Did

In the twelfth and final video of the series, Bruce S. Bertram from The Word of God Ministries and http://www.wholebible.com talks about the guideline of balancing the Word. Believers use the Word to steer a course between unreasonable fear of making a mistake and unbridled permission to presume on God's grace and sin that grace may abound.Show more

Love and the Spirit working with a heart of flesh is the key to balance. An unbalanced extreme is the idea that Jesus came to eliminate the Law. Another is legalism (misuse of the Law to earn something from God). We are tugged (or pushed) all the time towards other unbalanced practices such as supposed orthodoxy and restrictive traditions too. We balance the Word with dedication to every thing God says, yet with latitude considering we are doing the best we know how. We don't have to worry about death (since Jesus paid the price for disobedience) but on the other hand we don't just blow off His Word as if it doesn't count anymore.
