443. Hyper-Legalism
One of the foundations of legalism or works-based doctrine is a lack of understanding regarding the two covenants. Gentiles were never under the first covenant, we've only been under the second. The Jews were freed from that old covenant when the new covenant was ratified at the death and resurrection of Christ. The new was not an addition to the old, it completely replaced it. Legalists think the moral code of law (commandments) will reduce sin when in fact the scripture is clear that it will increase sin. It brought bondage and death and caused sin to revive. So what is the remedy for sin if it's not following the moral code? It's grace!
