Stop Taking Jesus Out of the Bible
April 20, 2022
Summary
We believe that all of the Bible--from Genesis to Revelation--is a testimony about Jesus. We believe there is law and gospel in the Old and New Testaments. These convictions are historical, confessional, Reformed convictions. Yet, many in our day get very nervous about seeing Christ in all of the Bible and of understanding the Scriptures in terms of law and gospel. Our fear is that, at the end of it, well-meaning people discourage the saints from seeing Christ for them in all of the Scriptures. Jon and Justin talk about this on today's episode.

Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, Justin and I are going to have a very pointed and lively conversation about why people find it necessary to remove Jesus from all of the scriptures?
We do wholeheartedly believe that the Bible is about Jesus from verse 1 to the end of the book, and there it seems to be a teaching and instructions today that would encourage one to not see Jesus in every
part of scripture.
We possibly name names and give examples.
It's a very lively conversation.
We hope you enjoy.
Stay tuned.

Welcome to Theocast, Encouraging Weary Pilgrims to Rest in Christ: Conversations about the Christian Life.
From a Reformed Confessional and Pastoral Perspective, today, your hosts are Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
I'm John Moffat.
I'm pastor of Grace Reform Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee.
And if you're just now tuning in and you didn't hear the introduction, you might want to go back and find out where Justin and I, Pastor.
I had someone email me recently, and they're like, Wow, you're in my same town.
I didn't even know that.
So you might even skip the early portions of the podcast.
They do.
