So, look . . . if you want to rely upon works of the Law to lay claim to the title "child of God," you can't. To be under the Law is to be a slave, and slaves are not sons.

Paul shows that the Law was never intended to save, but that salvation comes only through promise. The Law merely served as an instructor until the coming of the promised Christ.

Paul has a full head of steam and runs into the ground the notion that we receive the Spirit by works instead of by grace. Instead, we are of Abraham, the man of Christ.

Apostle fight, round one . . . GO! Paul puts the smackdown on Peter in a in a no-holds-barred fight for the gospel, because there's too much at stake.

Cliché preaching may be symptomatic of shallow, consumerist culture, perpetuating a problem rather than the solution.

Turns out the Christian Church's goal was also the pursuit of happiness! Ooops! Thanks Pandemic!

God has placed preachers of His Word in the frontlines of His combat against Satan and all his minions that is fought out on the battlefields of the individual lives of believers.

The Gospel is our freedom from sin. It is Christ in the mirror, Christ for me and for you.

What we notice less often is that this same fear wonders about both the efficacy of the Gospel and the Law.

The Law must attack because nothing outside of Christ can enter Heaven—nothing!

What happens when our children are taught to read the Scriptures as evidence that God is a heavenly Santa Claus? When happens when they think God rewards or punishes them depending on whether they've been naughty or nice?
