False Balances of Salvation


Neither do I condemn you (Grace)-Now go & sin no more (Law)
A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight. Proverbs 11:1

When it comes to salvation some people have their scales out-of-whack. Some focus on just Sanctification and become legalistic, focusing almost exclusivly on keeping the Law of God. While others go too far the other way and focus on just Justification. They assume that they don't need to keep the Law. They cry "Grace Grace" but forget that they need the Grace because of sin-which is transgression of the Law. Grace and the Law go hand-in-hand. Study the outlay of the Sanctuary sometime. -------You'll see the balance.
