The HOLY SPIRIT says, “But be doers of the Word, and not hears only, deceiving yourself.”
Whoever is not doing the Word of GOD in his/herself is deceiving him/herself.
My dear, Salvation is free and no one is being forced to receive it. It is free and free indeed. So why are we deceiving ourselves, pretending to worship GOD while we disobey His Word in the Bible as we live our daily lives.
... Again it is written, “For if any one is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But he who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer that forgets but a doer that acts, he shall be blessed in his doing. (James 1:23-25)” Again read James 1:22.
My dear, do the word of GOD, act the Word and live in the Word.
GOD bless you in JESUS Name.

Obedience to the Word is faith working by love....not legalism

Yes, it is Faith working by Love.
What is legalism?
Legalism is obedience to the letter of the law, and focusing on it rather than focusing on faith.
