In this episode, we dive into Catechism Question 33: "Should we seek our own salvation through our own works?" The answer is a resounding NO - everything necessary for salvation is found in Christ alone.
What we cover:
* Why seeking salvation through good works denies Christ as our only Redeemer
* The difference between living FOR salvation vs. living FROM salvation
* How faith in Jesus, not keeping the law, makes us right with God
* Why you can "hang up the heavy apron of works" and rest in Christ
* The empowerment that comes from knowing you're already saved
Key Scripture: Galatians 2:16 - "Yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ."
This isn't about being lazy in your faith - it's about understanding that your obedience flows FROM your salvation, not TO earn your salvation. There's a huge difference, and it changes everything.
