Preaching (2027)
  1. On this episode of Outlaw God, Dr. Steven Paulson and Caleb Keith continue to look at 2 Corinthians 3, where Paul contrasts the ministries of Moses and the Holy Spirit as law and gospel.
  2. Bayer shows the wonder and the glory that is found in the God who creates faith through the Word we are sent to preach, the Word that gives us certainty in Christ preached and promised.
  3. Jesus not only claims our present moment, but He does so with the grace of eternity. The beatitudes are filled with promises of future blessing.
  4. This is the heart of Christian theology: The Gospel is the word of the cross, and the word of the cross is the Gospel.
  5. Doing better is the only way to get those covenant blessings back. Since this is impossible there is seemingly no gospel in this text at all. That is, unless we remove ourselves from the picture.
  6. Jesus comes for those who are affected by the long darkness of sin and destruction. Jesus breaks the power of this present darkness with His Word, more specifically His preaching.
  7. In the middle, the thrill of extremes settles into the boredom of routines. For followers of Jesus, this can lead in several problematic directions.
  8. There is good news here for your hearer, good news of belonging.
