The salient point of our discussion revolves around the relevance of the Old Testament for the Church today. We delve into various perspectives on how the laws and teachings from the Old Testament still hold significance in contemporary Christian faith and practice. Throughout our dialogue, we examine the contrasting views of dispensationalism and covenant theology, considering how each framework interprets the continuity or discontinuity of the Old Testament laws in light of the New Covenant established by Christ. Furthermore, we explore the implications of these differing theological positions on the understanding of scripture, particularly regarding the moral law and its application to believers today. Ultimately, our conversation aims to highlight the enduring value of the Old Testament while navigating the complexities of its interpretation and application in the modern Church.

Takeaways:

• The Old Testament remains relevant for the church today, influencing our understanding of God's laws and character.
• The discussion highlights differing views on the application of Old Testament laws in contemporary Christian practice.
• Descriptive passages in the Old Testament should not be interpreted prescriptively without careful consideration of context.
• Interpreting scripture involves understanding both the original audience and the implications for modern believers.

I had the opportunity to sit down with Phil Johnson, Executive Director of Grace to You and a longtime friend of Pastor John MacArthur. In this conversation, Phil shares how he and Pastor MacArthur first met, along with some behind-the-scenes stories that many may not know about their friendship and ministry together. I think you’re really going to enjoy this discussion, and my prayer is that it encourages and edifies you this week.

Why is the Bible essential in evangelism and discipleship? In this raw, unscripted episode, George Binoka and Jeff Musgrave tackle some of the most common questions Christians face when sharing their faith. What is truth? Is using Scripture really necessary when evangelizing? What do you say to someone who doesn’t believe the Bible? And is God’s Word still powerful today?

You’ll walk away with renewed confidence in God’s Word, practical help for conversations with unbelievers, and a deeper understanding of how the Bible is not just informative—it’s transformative.

📖 Discover why you can “still smell His breath” on the pages of Scripture.
