Publisher's summary

In This Follow-Up to Gospel People, Michael Reeves Calls Evangelicals Away from Pharisaism to True Reformation

Scripture warns believers of hypocrisy—called the “leaven of the Pharisees”—and its potential to spread quickly in the church. Outwardly appearing as devout religion, this legalism hides destructive pride, idolatry, and even apostasy. Unfortunately, pharisaism is still a problem among evangelicals today. How does Jesus instruct the church to recognize and defeat one of its deepest theological issues?

In this clear, compelling call to spiritual reformation, Michael Reeves helps believers reject pharisaism and embrace gospel integrity. Studying 3 essentials of Christian doctrine that the Pharisees misunderstood—their approach to Scripture, understanding of salvation, and disregard of regeneration—Reeves shows listeners how to embrace a biblical, Trinitarian, and creedal understanding of the gospel necessary for true reformation.

  • Explains the 3 Essential Rs of the Gospel: Teaches listeners about revelation, redemption, and regeneration
  • A Great Resource for Pastors and Congregations: Addresses the threat of hypocrisy in the church, and tackles in-house issues from partisanship to pragmatism
  • A Follow-Up to Gospel People: Reeves continues his study of timely evangelical topics

More than a simple "follow-up" to Gospel-People

Michael Reeves has provided this listener with a better historical context than I had previously and is most helpful in challenging many assumptions that (this listener) needs to consider.

This listener is still a bit stunned after a first listen-through of approx. 3 hours. (this one packed a punch, indeed, one this listener needed.)

Certainly, acquire the "Gospel-People" audiobook to accompany this, and the recent audiobook by Michael Reeves and Daniel *Hames is one of my most re-listened-to ab's in some time.

We become what we behold

Pondering accurately the One True God in the Trinity transforms us by the Gospel in the radiance of our Lord Jesus Christ. Such beautiful freedom from bondage to sin and to self!

Read or listen to this

It is a real chemotherapy for the cancer that affects today’s church as a whole and why the fire is going out and people are no longer getting one from it’s glow.

Excellent analysis and prescription

Speaks directly to an evangelical need with insight and precision. The gospel is rightly identified as the cure. The Glory of Christ is central.
