Christianity versus legalism:
Having tattoos is not sinful.
Listening to secular music is not necessarily sinful.
Young women can definitely go to college.
There is not one perfect Bible translation.
There's not a set number of kids you must have.
You can enjoy the guitar, hip hop beats, minor chords, and a back-beat.
You can watch secular TV and movies (carefully).
In Christ, you can savor God's common and special grace alike, handle gray areas maturely, and not be the Conscience Police.
It is for FREEDOM that Christ set us free (Gal. 5:1).
Director of THE CHOSEN, Dallas Jenkins, asserts that Mormons **(who believe Jesus is the Spirit child of Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother, spirit-brother to Lucifer, who won the role of Messiah because he proposed a better strategy than Lucifer, and who accomplished an insufficient atonement in Gethsemane rather than on the cross)** and Christians love the same Jesus.
By the way, here is my favorite quote from Joseph Smith: “God is in the still small voice. In all these affidavits, indictments, it is all of the devil—all corruption. Come on! ye prosecutors! ye false swearers! All hell, boil over! Ye burning mountains, roll down your lava! for I will come out on the top at last. I have more to boast of than ever any man had. I am the only man that has ever been able to keep a whole church together since the days of Adam. A large majority of the whole have stood by me. Neither Paul, John, Peter, nor Jesus ever did it. I boast that no man ever did such a work as I. The followers of Jesus ran away from Him; but the Latter-day Saints never ran away from me yet”. (Joseph Smith, History of the Church, p. 409)
