Would Your Idea of Holiness Condemn Jesus? | R.C. Sproul

R.C. Sproul asks a provocative question: why was Jesus accused of being a glutton and a drunkard when He was neither? Jesus attended feasts, drank real wine, ate with tax collectors, and associated with people the religious establishment considered scandalous. Sproul argues that the deeper problem was legalism. Some had reduced godliness to external rules—and Jesus didn't fit their definition of what a “spiritual” person should look like. That raises an uncomfortable question: if Jesus walked into some evangelical churches today, would He be welcomed—or questioned for His behavior?
