Summary

While on the west coast, Jon and Justin were invited by Chris Gordon (host of Abounding Grace Radio and pastor of Escondido United Reformed Church) to do some recording. This episode is the second portion of that conversation. The guys discuss the Great Commission. What is it? Is it a call to Christianize the nations? Or is it the preaching of Jesus Christ for the justification of sinners? (Hint: It’s the latter.) Semper Reformanda: Jon and Justin talk about theonomy--how it confuses the law and obscures the gospel.

0:00.0	Hi, this is Justin. Today on Theocast is part two of a conversation that John and I recently had with Chris Gordon, who is the host of Abounding Grace Radio and the pastor of Escondito United Reform Church out there on the West Coast.
0:17.7	We continue our conversation as preachers of God's Word, and we talk
0:22.9	about the Great Commission. What is it? Is it a call and a commission to Christianize the
