Samuel Bolton in his book contrasted a legal obediance as against a gospel obediance. The legal obediance seeks to set up a standard that he can easily attain to. Rules that if kept in the flesh give a false sense of well being.

The gospel obediance seeks the commands of scripture and lets one know that we are wholly dependant on the grace of God to perform that which we are called to do.
