There Is No Power in the Law

Some of you are probably really concerned about this title.

Guys, you have gone too far.

Well, we're here to defend not ourselves, but we want to show you from scripture that all power remains in Christ and Him crucified, and the law is only but here to guide us or convict us.

And we're going to talk about the different uses of the law, but the law is powerless to save and it's powerless to sanctify.

Let us prove it to you from scripture.

Stay tuned.

If you're new to Theocast, you may not have heard of this word.

It's called pietism.

Have you ever felt like the Christian life is a heavy burden versus rest and joy?

That you wake up worrying about how well you're going to perform instead of thinking about what Christ has done for you.

It's dread versus joy, really.

That's pietism.

Pietism causes Christians to look in on themselves and find their hope, not in what Christ has done, but what they're doing.

And we have a little book for you.

It's free.

We want you to download it, and we're going to explain the difference between Pietism and what we call confessionalism, Reformed theology, really, how it is that we walk by faith, seeing the joy of Christ.

And when Jesus says, Come to me and I will give you rest, what does that look like?

You can download it at our website.

Just go to theocast.org.
