Resting in Jesus Christ

March 1, 2023

Summary

The objective in this episode is simple: to talk about the sufficiency of Jesus Christ and the rest he provides to sinners. In order to do that, Jon and Justin consider the law, the judgement seat, and the gospel--which is the power of God for salvation to all who believe. We ought not be afraid of wrath or condemnation. We ought not be afraid to go to Jesus in our time of need. He really does bid us to come to him for rest.

[00:00:53]Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ, conversations about the Christian life from a reformed, pastoral, and covenantal perspective.

[00:01:02]If you're wondering what's going to happen today on the episode, I'll tell you this: we're going to clarify the gospel and we're going to reclaim the purpose of the kingdom.

[00:01:09]So stay tuned for that.

[00:01:10]Your hosts are Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.

[00:01:15]And I'm Jon Moffitt.

[00:01:16]I'm the pastor of Grace Reformed Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee.

[00:01:20]And today is going to be unique and not unique at the same time.

[00:01:24]Justin, explain what I mean by that.

[00:01:27]Well, hello to you, John.

[00:01:28]Happy to explain, man.

[00:01:30]Not unique in that we're going to talk about resting in Jesus Christ today, which is something that we talk about more or less week over week over week.

[00:01:40]We might come at it from different angles.
