Do you ever feel judged for how you look? It hurts, right?! If legalism is new to you, I’m blessed to have the opportunity to show you the difference between a relationship with Jesus and a list of man-made religious rules.

Hear my heart. I have lived under much scrutiny trying to bring a message of faith and fitness into the world, so if you have been hurt by this too I want you to be free in Jesus!

Although we have never met, I’m certain I’m not alone in the intense desire to know what God says about these things.

Start listening to learn 3 Ways Legalism is stealing your Jesus Glow:

1. Salvation Plus Works:

  • Legalism claims salvation isn't enough; you must earn it. Jesus plus *their rules* are how you can be good enough. There is No Jesus Plus. There is only Jesus is ENOUGH.
  • Legalism controls, induces guilt, and hinders freedom in Christ.

2. Man-Made Rules vs. Jesus-Bought Freedom:

  • Legalism imposes man-made rules, not freedom bought by the death of Jesus on the Cross.
  • Women often feel pressured to conform to specific looks, dress codes, and behaviors and are confused about the truth of God.
  • Scriptures referring to modesty are used to control how women dress, and whether or not to wear makeup.
  • Personal choices like makeup, hair color, Botox, and fitness are scrutinized under legalistic lenses instead of founded in Scripture.

3. Division and Judgment:

  • Legalism promotes gossip, self-righteousness, and judgment.
  • Jesus associated with sinners, urging us to follow His example.
  • We must follow Jesus and challenge ourselves to avoid legalistic behaviors, gossip, and judgment and live in the freedom He paid for!

Snapshot: Our Glow doesn’t come from our appearance, it comes from walking in the freedom Jesus' death bought us on the Cross, and it's fueled by the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. God made each of us unique, with different tastes and styles. Being who He made you to be is what shines your light.Legalism dims this light, like snuffing out a candle. Remember we are under grace, not the law, and Jesus changes us from glory to glory.

Faith Fuel to Light Your Jesus Glow:

"So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 NKJV

I pray this message helps you recognize legalism's control is from man and not God, so you can, forgive, and reclaim your power by standing on the finished work of the Cross.

Share this with a friend and leave a review. Let's challenge legalism together and embrace the freedom Jesus offers. Amen.

Remember, You are Strong. Confident. His.
