This session explores the theological distinction between the law of works, the law of faith, and the law of Christ through the lens of the Marrow Controversy and Matthew 5. Pastor Jason utilizes historical context from Edward Fisher and Thomas Boston to clarify how these three categories function in biblical interpretation and pastoral application. By examining Jesus' antitheses in the Sermon on the Mount, the teaching demonstrates how the law exposes sin and drives believers to Christ for justification. The discussion emphasizes that while the moral law remains a rule of life for believers, it is fulfilled through faith in Christ's perfect obedience. Ultimately, the goal is to equip pastors to preach both judgment and grace accurately, ensuring the gospel offer remains free and universal.

Today in our sermon series on the Westminster Shorter Catechism, we come to question 32 which brings us to a new subdivision in the Catechism. It is true that we often lack an eternal perspective, but it is important to look at the blessing that we have from Christ in this life.

If we are going to see things correctly, we need to look at them eyes for God, as instructed by His Word.

Read: Isaiah 53 Text: Lord's Day 5 We need a Mediator to be received into God's favour. 1. Our own inability 2. The gift of a Mediator Questions for reflection: 1. Do you ever fear God's wrath? Is that a good thing? 2. What does God think if you do your best? Will he accept you? 3. Where does the Bible teach us that we don't have what it takes to be right with God? 4. What blessing comes when God maintains his impossibly high standards of requiring us to be absolutely perfect in order to enter his presence? 5. What does Luke 15 teach us about the character of God? 6. What blessing do you receive in having Christ as your Mediator?

Regardless of what God's people may want to pretend God says, God's true preachers always and only proclaim what God has truly said. True Preachers Preach God's Truth, His Whole Truth, and Nothing But God's Truth.
