[00:00:04]Hi, this is Jon, and today on Theocast, Justin and I interview a special guest on the covenant of works and why it is so important.
[00:00:13]We argue from the Bible that the covenant of works can be found in the text, and it's vitally important to our understanding of the gospel, specifically Christ's righteousness for us.
[00:00:24]It's a fun conversation, it's a lively one, and this is part one of a two-part episode that we do with Pat Abendroth.
[00:00:32]Stay tuned.
