Here Jesus is speaking of his sending forth his messengers to trumpet the gospel of salvation. The fall of the old covenant economy is the sign that the gospel of God's saving grace is spreading to all the world, overflo…
Church history begins with his legal victory at the cross-resurrection-ascension, continues progressively as he subdues all of his other enemies, and ends finally at the eschatological resurrection, which conquers the fi…
So then, the end of history is contingent: it will come whenever it may be that Christ delivers up the kingdom to his Father.[41] But this will not occur until 'after He has destroyed all dominion, authority and power' (…
in Romans 11 Paul speaks of Christianity's future glory: the Jewish failure will eventually bring 'riches for the world' (Rom 11:12), resulting in 'the reconciling of the world' (Rom 11:15), leading to 'the fulness of th…
Christ's coming not only establishes the kingdom but initiates its growth to victory through time: it dynamically grows like a mustard seed to a great plant dominating the garden (Matt 13:31'32). Its growth is secured by…
In the New Testament the Lord Jesus Christ appears in order to fulfill the Old Testament hope of the Messiah. He presents himself as the king who has come to establish his kingdom in anticipation of his universal rule.
Here we must recognize that the ceremonial law by design is never intended to be an end in itself. It always is prophetically and typically forward-looking, anticipating the coming of the Redeemer and the finalization of…
The immediate contextual setting of Paul's statement suggests he is dealing with 'the Law'as that which separates the Jewish race from the Gentiles. In the very verse in question Paul states: 'to the Jews I become as a J…
Some decry the law as an imposition of religion. But all law imposes religion in that law is necessarily religious, for all law is an expression of morality.
We must recall that the new covenant does not bring with it a new Law, but rather the power to keep the same Law.
the apostasy laws in God's Law are not laws against mere unbelief or misguided worship. Those laws were designed to protect the legal integrity of the nation (criminalizing such actions as treason, conspiracy, seditious…
So we see that God created man as a dominion-oriented creature who is commissioned with the 'Cultural Mandate' (Gen 1:26) to subdue the earth to the glory of God.[21] The question arises then: Will man subdue the earth t…
Note that his enemies become his footstool while he is seated at God's right hand (where he appears after his ascension: Acts 2:33'35; 5:31; 7:56; Rom 8:34; Eph 1:20; Col 3:1; Heb 1:3, 13; 8:1; 10:12; 12:2; 1 Pet 3:22) '…
The Christian must see God's Law as a guide for his own personal behavior. God's Law is law, not suggestion. It is fundamentally obligatory, not merely recommended.
God's Law is redemptive only in Christ's keeping it in our behalf so that he and he alone might secure our salvation. Salvation is and always has been by grace through faith alone. Modern Judaism and Islam, along with li…
Since our problem is primarily ethical, and since our sin blinds us to righteousness, God's Law is essential to our struggle against sin because the Law defines it. Indeed, 'where there is no law, neither is there violat…
The Law does not have the power to sanctify; that is the Holy Spirit's ministry as he operates in the gospel. But the Law sets forth the God-ordained pattern of righteous behavior thereby providing an objective standard…
This idea of 'becoming a Jew'indicates ceremonial distinctives are in view rather than moral ones. No one 'becomes a Jew'by not killing, not committing adultery, or not coveting (keeping the moral aspects of the Law). Th…
Here we must recognize that the ceremonial law by design is never intended to be an end in itself. It always is prophetically and typically forward-looking, anticipating the coming of the Redeemer and the finalization of…
The old covenant structure and ceremonial obligations, which included the sacrificial system and various ritual and typological features, is established only with Israel. Yet it was established on a moral substructure ro…
The Law thereby prohibits three contemporary monetary phenomena that have contributed so heavily to the economically precarious position of modern nations: fiat money, fractional reserve banking, and deficit spending.
Reformed theology has been the clearest and most vigorous proponent of God's Law, whereas most other evangelical theologies either overlook it altogether or studiously discount it as a viable option in ethical and legal…
The Reformation principles of sensus literalis has been hopelessly confused. To interpret the Bible 'literally,'strictly speaking, is to interpret the text according to how it is written. It allows, nay demands that symb…

Because of this, Zion becomes an image of God's rule in the world. In the New Testament the images of Zion and Jerusalem transcend Old Testament realities, reaching to heaven itself (Gal 4:25'26; Heb 12:22; Rev 14:1). Th…
When the Law is properly understood and its threats heard and feared, it exercises a restraining power within the souls of sinners, which is the end result of true conviction of sin.
As goes the family, so goes the faith; as goes the faith, so goes the culture.
