Legalism was a huge issue as the church grew from a Jewish sect into a multiethnic movement, and it continues to plague the church today. What is the essence of the gospel, and how does it relate to contemporary culture? What is authentic spirituality, and how can people experience it?

Bruce and Stan show that the apostle Paul's answers to these questions and his presentation of God's grace speak just as forcefully to twenty-first century believers as they did to his original readers.
