The Gospel & Fulfillment of the Law

December 5, 2021

For The King

For The KingFTK

An apology is due to you listeners as I have been negligent to upload the past two weeks. I have just been married and have been on a honeymoon and moving into our new house so I hope you can forgive me! Last time on the Sunday series, we spoke about the law and the gospel and how we ought to think about the two together. Building on that episode we walk through how foundational to the gospel is the understanding that the law that we have transgressed, Christ has completely followed and fulfilled in his obedient life, obedience even unto the cross that he died on. This is a foundational truth to the gospel, Christ must have kept the law that we broke for there to be any hope in the gospel.

Key Texts:

* Matthew 3:15

* Matthew 5:17-19

* Hebrews 7:26-28

My guest joining me this week on the Sunday series is my brother Bryce. Bryce is getting his undergraduate degree in philosophy and hopes to get his MDiv. from a seminary after he completes his undergrad. He hopes to be a pastor shepherding Gods people one day.
