In this episode of Footnotes, Greg unpacks his April 6th sermon, “What God Made Clean,” walking through Peter’s transformative vision in Acts 10 and its implications for how Christians understand the Old Testament law. He breaks down the three sections of the law—judicial, ceremonial, and moral—and explains why Christians can eat bacon and get tattoos but still hold to sexual ethics and honesty. Along the way, Greg dives into the purpose of the holiness code, how Jesus fulfilled it perfectly, and how the gospel reshapes our relationship with the law—not as a burden to bear, but as a reflection of grace at work in our hearts.

In this episode of Footnotes, we explore the conversion of Saul and how his background as a Pharisee highlights the depths of God’s sovereignty in choosing him. Unlike the Sadducees, who denied the resurrection and held power through their association with the temple, the Pharisees were devoted to the Law and believed in the resurrection of the dead. Saul’s zeal for the Law made him a fierce opponent of the early church, yet it was this very foundation that God would use to shape him into the apostle who would proclaim Christ as the fulfillment of the Law. His story is a powerful reminder that God’s purposes are not hindered by human opposition but are accomplished through His sovereign grace.

In this episode, we focus on Galatians 6:15, where Paul underscores that “neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is the new creation.” Here, Paul speaks to the heart of the gospel: salvation is through faith alone, not by external rituals or observances. This leads us into a discussion on sacraments versus ordinances—are these practices necessary for salvation, or are they symbols of our faith and obedience? As we explore these ideas, we’ll see that while sacraments and ordinances hold an important place in Christian worship, they do not contribute to our salvation; rather, they point us back to the transformative power of grace.

In this episode, we focus on the call to restore each other in love as laid out in Galatians 6:1-5. Paul emphasizes the importance of helping one another when we fall into sin, doing so with gentleness and humility. Greg reminds us that the law exposes the seriousness of sin, but our true freedom in Christ is found in walking by the Spirit. As we live by the Spirit, we’re called to lovingly call out sin and support each other, reflecting Christ’s grace. This restoration isn't about judgment, but about helping one another stay faithful and not fall deeper into sin. It’s an expression of our love for each other, driven by the Spirit’s work in our lives.

Greg discusses how the law reveals the depth of our sin, making sin utterly sinful, and how Galatians 5:16-26 teaches us that true freedom in Christ is not found in following the law, but in walking by the Spirit. This freedom leads us to serve others in love, as Galatians 5:13-15 explains. Loving our neighbor is not merely an emotion but a deliberate choice to seek their good, reflecting Christ’s heart. By living in the Spirit, our faith naturally expresses itself through love and good works—not as an attempt to fulfill the law, but as an overflow of the grace we've received in Christ.

Greg dives into Galatians 5, highlighting how true freedom in Christ is found in faith working through love. He explains the distinction between justification—being declared righteous through faith alone—and sanctification, the ongoing work of God in our lives. Greg stresses that our sanctification is certain because God will complete the good work He began in us. Paul refutes the Judaizers, showing that salvation is not through the law, but by grace alone. As God sanctifies us, our faith naturally expresses itself in love and good works.
