On lively, biblical faith

Mike Leake has written an outstanding blog post on gospel-sounding legalism. Here's a sample:

God does indeed intend to conquer your fear, worry, and anxiety. But He does not conquer your fear, worry, and anxiety by leaving you an owner’s manual, providing you the resources, setting an example, and then saying "get it done”. He conquers your fear, worry, and anxiety by ACTUALLY conquering your fear, worry, and anxiety.

Amen. I recommend Mike's whole article.
