Outline
Hook: Our culture says, Follow your heart. Good or bad advice?
I. GRACE ALONE
"Grace rules out all qualifications by definition.” – Sinclair Ferguson
II. JESUS PLUS (ANYTHING)
"Jesus plus nothing equals everything. Jesus plus anything is slavery; and it will kill you." - Tim Keller
III. FREE TO LOVE
"A Christian is lord of all, completely free of everything. A Christian is a servant, completely attentive to the needs of all." - Martin Luther
Takeaway: You can lose the gospel in two ways: by becoming 1) too relaxed; or 2) too religious.
