God’s law: The struggling believer’s gracious and trusty friend

Series: A better covenant

“Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them” (Matthew 5:17). Through his sacrifice on the cross, Christ’s righteousness is imparted to the believer. Jesus Christ has fulfilled the law’s demands on our behalf. Christ did not come to abolish the law. The law condemns the sinner, yet the law is good. It is a friend to all those who seek to live a Christ-like life in an increasingly hostile world.

Whole Counsel of God

Series: Solid Foundations II

Christ’s death and resurrection are the heart of the Gospel. But the Gospel does not just stop at our conversion. God’s word gives vital principles for living today and prepares us for our life to come. If the Church is to grow like Christ, “the whole counsel of God” must be our guide (Acts 20:27). All of life is to be brought under the lordship of Christ and false teaching is to be challenged.
