1. The whole of the Scriptures are interpreted through the lens of the Law and the Gospel.
  2. In contrast to the human courts of our land, the Divine court never makes errors nor excuses
  3. Pastor Paul is perplexed over the presumptiveness of people of a pugnacious persuasion who consider themselves to be in a position to pass over the Gospel.
  4. So, look . . . if you want to rely upon works of the Law to lay claim to the title "child of God," you can't. To be under the Law is to be a slave, and slaves are not sons.
  5. Paul shows that the Law was never intended to save, but that salvation comes only through promise. The Law merely served as an instructor until the coming of the promised Christ.
  6. Paul has a full head of steam and runs into the ground the notion that we receive the Spirit by works instead of by grace. Instead, we are of Abraham, the man of Christ.
  7. Apostle fight, round one . . . GO! Paul puts the smackdown on Peter in a in a no-holds-barred fight for the gospel, because there's too much at stake.
  8. We know how reading God's Word can sometimes be confusing, but it doesn't have to be. Craig and Troy discuss how God uses the Word in our lives by both convicting us of our sin and delivering us the forgiveness of those same sins through Jesus Christ.

  9. Too often, we equate “repent” as the final warning to stop a particular sin before God ceases to love you and sends you to hell for your evil deeds.
  10. These teachings are the heart of the Reformation…If it is about you, it isn’t about Jesus.
  11. Christ alone has finished your salvation. Christ alone could and has made satisfaction for your sins.
  12. So what's the back side? What's the promise? We shall not have other gods, but we do have the one, true God—the promise of a God for us.
