Todays most dangerous spiritual virus is that of religious legalism. Since the church first began, Christians have had trouble accepting Gods grace.

Bad News Religion is a page-turner that calls for reformation-forsaking legalism and embracing Gods amazing grace.

(PRWEB) August 4, 2004 -- Whats wrong with being religious?

Nashville, Tenn--Todays most dangerous spiritual virus is that of religious legalism. Since the church first began, Christians have had trouble accepting Gods grace. In Bad News Religion (World Publishing, $14.99, ISBN 0-5291-1954-4), author Greg Albrecht discusses how legalism drains the joy and the life out of believers.

Legalism seduces us by promising that we can earn our own way into Gods good graces. Performance-based religion is a harsh and stern slave driver," writes Albrecht. Bad News Religion is based on the conviction that if we do more and try harder we will be able to manipulate and obligate God into accepting our good deeds as at least partial payment for our salvation."

In this liberating new book, Albrecht addresses important issues that will protect readers and their faith from legalism. He discusses...

•   Why biblical Christianity is Christianity without the religion.
•   What to do if you or someone you know is infected with religious legalism-burned out by a hell-on-earth experience in the name of God.
•   The warning signs of legalism that thrive throughout Christendom.
•   The hallmarks of a healthy, grace-based, Christ-centered, biblically-grounded church.
•   How authentic Christianity is grounded in the incredible, almost too-good-to-be-true news of Gods grace.
•   Religion is the problem-Jesus is the answer.

Bad News Religion is a page-turner that calls for reformation-forsaking legalism and embracing Gods amazing grace. Albrechts engaging style presents the facts that will free those who are burdened by the weight of legalism.
