Legalism is insidious. It causes man to reverse his priorities and values while at the same time it has him thinking he is growing in grace and righteousness. It is much as the scribes and Pharisees whom Jesus accused of emphasizing the external, less-important things and neglecting the internal more important matters (Matt. 23).
This blog/site will solely be directed to exposing these men and their doctrine in hopes that more people can see through their hypocrisy. We will be addressing each point of teaching they have and supply a rebuttal for each argument they have. Please feel free to comment and offer suggestion

Correction: Jesus did not accuse the Pharisees of emphasizing the less-weighty matters. What He actually said about them was, “…these are the things you should have done without neglecting the others” (emphasis mine). The problem wasn’t that they strained the gnat; the problem was that they swallowed the camel. Jesus’ criticism of the Pharisees was not that they were too strict; it was that they weren’t strict enough!
