Summary
Joe and Jimmy are back to talk about the Law of God from the 1689 Confession (Chapter 19, paragraph 6). What does it mean when we say we are “not under law but under grace,” and how does this relate to the use of the law in the life of the Christian? Does a Christian have to keep the law? Plus Joe doesn’t know how to do Labor Day.
To get into the Ten Commandments we encourage our listeners to check out Thomas Watson treatment of the Big Ten here.
