Enemies of the Gospel

The Gospel has two enemies that have always struggled to corrupt it within the church. On the one hand is legalism, which pulls the church into shame and works-righteousness. On the other extreme is relativism which says that anything is fine, sin isn't a problem, and you just need to stay true to your self and you're fine. The Gospel resists both of these tendencies and calls people to recognized they are saved by grace but we do have a sin problem that only Jesus can deal with.
