| 0:00.0 | Hey guys, real quick, before we get started, I have a small request. If you've been blessed by our |
| 0:04.5 | content and you like this show, would you take just a brief moment and leave us a five-star review? |
| 0:09.7 | This is quite possibly the most effective thing that you can do to ensure that this content |
| 0:14.6 | gets out to as many people as possible. Thanks. |
| 0:21.3 | Glenn Ferris, can you explain 1 Corinthians 9, 20, and 21 where Paul states we are not |
| 0:27.2 | under the law? What is Paul stating in these verses? To the Jews, I became a Jew in order to win |
| 0:31.8 | Jews. To those under the law, I became as one under the law, though not being myself under the law that I might win those under the law. To those outside of the law, I became as one under the law, though not being myself under the law, that I might |
| 0:38.4 | win those under the law. To those outside of the law, I became as one outside of the law, |
| 0:42.6 | not being outside of God, but under the law of Christ, that I might win those outside the law. |

| 0:58.0 | Glenn Ferris, fair question, good question. Nothing wrong in asking questions. I was about to say, |
| 1:03.3 | there's no such thing as a stupid question, but there are stupid questions. This is not one. Okay, |
| 1:06.9 | so First Corinthians chapter 9, verse 20 through 21. First thing we need to understand is the divisions of the law, the divisions of the law. All right. So the reformers argue there was three |
| 1:15.1 | uses of the law, right? The law, it reveals our need for a savior. None of the use of the law. |
| 1:20.1 | There are three within the reformed perspective of understanding the law of God. None of these three |
| 1:25.7 | uses is the law being used to save. The law is not |
| 1:28.8 | saving. No man will be saved by works as done unto the law. This is what the apostle Paul says |
| 1:33.3 | elsewhere. But the law does reveal our need for a savior, right? The law of God helps us to |
| 1:39.7 | recognize and realize that God is holy, right? Because the law is holy and therefore reflects the |
| 1:45.0 | holiness of the law giver. And by way of consequence, as we see God's holiness through his holy |
