LIBERALITY is the freedom of spirit that comes into the life and actions when the grace of God is given free reign. This was the impulse of generosity and giving all to God that marked the beginning of the early church.
There are two counterfeits to gospel liberality: liberalism (a false freedom that excuses or ignores sin), and legalism (a false obedience that is made up of narrow-minded and selfish rules).
The contrast between these three principles is explored in these studies from the 2006 International Seminar. 319p
