Dallas Willard taught this 5-day intensive seminary course on the psychology of redemption (the theology of spiritual formation) for Denver Seminary in January 2010. Dallas called it "THE HUMAN CONTRIBUTION TO HOLINESS, or if you like, THE HUMAN SIDE OF HOLINESS: WHAT IS OUR PART IN PUTTING OFF THE OLD PERSON AND PUTTING ON THE NEW."
In this fifteenth session (15/19) Dallas Willard speaks on:
THE WILL (HUMAN SPIRIT, HEART) AND THE SOUL IN THE PROCESS OF SANCTIFICATION. Matt. 5:17-48, Mark 7:1-23, Luke 6:39-49, Heb. 10:16.
RENOVATION OF THE HEART, Chapters 8 & 11

This is SO good. Light bulb moments. The word of God feeds the soul!
“Not because they’re trying to get something but because they’ve already got it.”
Yes. Nothing can be added nor subtracted from the real you. Neither health, harmony, money, nor supply can be received, but these can be given forth from that which is within - Unselfed living, giving, sharing. Your infinite supply as a confident believer in the care the almighty. No fear in this or what you'll become once you let go of your "idea" of yourself (EGO & will).
He's missing the doctrine of the imputed righteousness of Christ.
I've been watching Dallas' stuff for about a year, and I don't think he's missing the critical doctrine of imputed righteousness: Knowing that the Romans 7 phenomena is not the Romans 8 life, and knowing that only God can do God's part, the topic remains that ""our part" in the matter is indeed our part (unless you're a hyper-Calvinist) One example of our part is that we do mortify the deeds of the flesh. And to those prone to the deception of fictional righteousness (where the "righteousness of the law is not actually fulfilled in us Rom 8:4), there are possible issues to untangle and relevant teachings to discuss. There are those wo actually do not walk "after the flesh, but after the spirit". And Dallas does a decent job of bringing clarity and guidance along those lines.
They are making Christianity complecated
@@stephengadi1997 Hopefully you also believe things can be oversimplified as well. ( czcams.com/video/Ow0lr63y4Mw/video.html ) We who seek to clear up various inconsistencies within ourselves think deeply about these kind of things. And we discuss them beside the bible even as Paul did in the book of Romans. Can we accuse Paul of making Christianity complicated when he expounded and explained things in the book of Romans? Certainly not. But even Peter said of Paul in his epistles, "he speaks of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood... " It doesn't mean that Paul was complicating the gospel. It is to say however that Paul's explanations may have seemed to be complicated to some. For this reason I think many could benefit by giving pause to judging Dallas too quickly. Take your time and don't misunderstand him. Consider what he's actually teaching. There's truly something to it.
We surely do have the imputed righteousness given to us through Jesus in our standing with God. BUT the responsibility of “working out our salvation” lays on us. Be transformed, set your mind, be holy, shine your light……those are choices made by us when walking in obedience. Christian apologists and philosophers are in a class of their own. They are deep and often hard for me to process, but at the same time they challenge me and I appreciate their knowledge.
You will find that he is fairly Calvinist but not in the way many contemporary churches are Calvinist.
In Renovation of the Heart he specifically speaks of both imputed and imparted righteousness.
