“type/pattern of teaching” :
Theological Overlook:
“The Third Use of the Law”
-Good news and bad: No matter your state in life, you will continue to present
yourself as the slave ready for work.
-The secret is not you in different circumstances, but Christ in you.
1. True freedom comes from serving the right master.
-Everyone is a slave to something.
-To what are you willing to commit yourself?
-What is the outcome of your “slaveries”?
2. Never “settle” spiritually. Always want more of Christ.
-Shame’s purpose is to reveal true guilt.
3. Sin will take you on a ride that you do not like.
Do you enjoy the Christian life?
Enjoying the “end“ means enjoying the process.
4. Don’t work for a wage. Work for God’s free gift.
