Gospel-Driven Sanctification

Are you on the treadmill of a ‘performance based’ version of Christianity? If so then you may be a victim of bad doctrine and bad preaching.

Did you know that the Gospel still applies to you as a Christian and that Christians need to hear the Gospel just as badly as non-Christians?

Jerry Bridges examines the subtle illusions that deceive many people today and brings us back to the Bread of Life...

• Evangelicals commonly think today that the gospel is only for unbelievers. Once we're inside the kingdom's door, we need the gospel only in order to share it with those who are still outside


• We think we earn God's blessing or forfeit it by how well we live the Christian life.


• Most Christians have a baseline of acceptable performance by which they gauge their acceptance by God

Christians need to hear the gospel all of their lives because it is the gospel that continues to remind us that our day-to-day acceptance with the Father is not based on what we do for God but upon what Christ did for us in his sinless life and sin-bearing death.
