Antinomianism, which is usually defined as “against the law,” was a centuries-old heresy whose basic tenet held that Christians were not bound by traditional moral law, particularly that of the Old Testament. Instead, a man could be guided by an inner light that would reveal the proper forms of conduct.
This old heresy is alive and well in the modern world, hence, “my truth” is the guide for our life rather than Jesus and Scripture as the guide for our life.
