This workshop on How Does Jesus Fulfill the Law with Don Carson was recorded at The Gospel Coalition’s 2018 Women’s Conference (TGCW18) in Indianapolis, Indiana. For more information, visit tgc.org
In 50+ years of Bible study I had never noticed that in Matthew 5:18 the word "till" is used twice. It behooves all believers to be humble when discussing the scriptures. No human has a perfect understanding of the Word. We are dependent upon the Holy Spirit.
Wonderful - I find this summary far more satisfying than the traditional views about our relationship to the Mosaic law which I have never found convincing.
I am so grateful to men of God, who like Don Carson are totally committed to bringing the true meaning of the bible to people like me, who has not otherwise have experienced such good and honest teaching from God's word.
While I don’t agree with his acceptance of the creative liberty taken by the Mark 7:19’s translators, I did find the overall presentation educational and insightful. I will admit that I did have to use the pause button a lot in order to validate what he was saying. Definitely worth the 2 hours. (2 hours includes the paused/validation time)
There seems to be many varying opinions on this lecture. The Bible is complicated; however, I always refer to the book of James(believed to have been written by Jesus' half brother). *I have never heard it preached that you can go on with living any way you want after praying "the sinner's prayer." James is full of instructions on how we are to live especially in the first 2 chapters. My favorite is James 2:19-20 "You believe that there is one God; you do well:
Its crazy because as i was sitting and thinking about this question, what does it mean that Jesus fulfilled the law?, this understanding came to mind😮. I was blown away. So i came here search it and even more blown away.
I lift up everyone's prayers, wants and needs to You Jesus, please pour out blessings. May Your favor, grace and mercy be upon the world. In Jesus name come help us all. You know our needs and everything else about each of us. In Jesus name amen thank you Jesus praise God 🙏
