Really? Loving the Person of Christ is the Key to Winning?

The apostle Paul wrote, “But when the fullness of the time had come, God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under the law” (Galatians 4:4). Today I examine how reason led to an understanding of law by 50 B.C. that was ready for the law to become incarnate. Its the story we need to hear in our day, especially Christian lawyers. It's amazing! And I explain why the story of the person of Jesus is more important than ever.

An Advent Story: Law and "the Fullness of the Time"

Today we examine the test Isaiah provides us on whether our thoughts on winning are God's thoughts or conform to those of our age. And I will examine that test in light of a recent case argued before the United States Supreme Court by Christian lawyers and my wrong application of that test and compare them both to how Isaiah might have us apply that test to our legal and political arguments.

God's Thoughts on How to Win in a Rivalrous Society

Today's episode is Part 1 of my Thanksgiving gift to you. It responds to the fact that our society runs on rivalry. One person wins means the others lose; one group wins means the other groups lose. It's exhausting. I pray this gift will help you go back into your part of the world after the Thanksgiving weekend with joy and peace (Isaiah 55:12 ). And I pray it will jump start an Advent season filled with more of the same. Part 2 will come out Wednesday morning. Stay tuned.
