Hi Bud! :) "Legalism" in the sense of traditions of men is and always has been a grievance to our Lord. We are saved by Jesus through faith alone. The law (HIS law, not man's law) is good in that it shows us what sin IS, so that we may avoid it! We believe, we receive the very Spirit of God indwelling us, and He prompts us to read (feed on) the Word of God, thereby growing in knowledge and grace, repenting each time we see sin in our lives.
Amen, it is Christ Jesus, who died for us and we will stand or fall according to His judgement. Jesus did say whoever teaches and does the law will be great in the Kingdom as well (or least if they do the opposite) but our righteousness is completely in Him, from faith to faith, start to finish. Bless you Bud.
