About this listen

JesusRest is a Scripture-centered podcast exploring the finished work of Christ and the end of the Sinai covenant. Many Christians speak of grace — yet still live under performance, obligation, and quiet fear. Is salvation secured by Christ alone, or are believers still measured by law, tithing, and behavior? This podcast examines the Bible as a unified story of promise, covenant, and fulfillment. We explore the difference between the Sinai covenant and the New Covenant, the meaning of freedom from law, and what it truly means to live by the Spirit rather than performance. If you’re wrestling with grace, law, faith, works, covenant theology, or assurance of salvation — you’re in the right place. Scripture interprets Scripture. Christ is the center. Rest is the result.Copyright 2026 Ted Octavius-Greene Christianity Spirituality
Episodes
  • Episode 4: The Veil Is Gone — So What Now?
    Feb 17 2026

    For the last Episode in this series, we give you episode 4:

    Why did James quote Amos in Acts 15? What does it mean that God would “rebuild the tabernacle of David”? And what began in Acts 1 when the Spirit was poured out?

    In this episode, we finish the story of David’s tabernacle and connect it to the tearing of the veil. We explore what open access to God really means, how Christ fulfills and establishes the law (Romans 3:31), and how difficult passages fit within covenant fulfillment — not Sinai restoration.

    We examine:

    1. Acts 1 and the beginning of open access
    2. The meaning of the torn veil
    3. Establishing the law without returning to obligation
    4. David’s tabernacle as prophetic fulfillment
    5. How grace and truth resolve difficult Scriptures

    If the veil is truly removed and Christ is our High Priest, then something massive has shifted.

    And it changes everything.

  • Episode 3: He Is Our Life — Abiding, Growth, and the Commandments of Christ
    Feb 17 2026

    In this 4-part series we give you episode 3: What does it actually mean that “Christ is our life” (Colossians 3:4)?

    In this episode, we move beyond behavior modification and into union. Growth in the Christian life is not striving harder under a new system — it is abiding in the Vine (John 15). We explore how to read Scripture from union instead of distance, how the commandments of Christ are not burdensome, and how the law of liberty operates through faith working through love (Galatians 5:6).

    We address:

    1. What abiding really means
    2. How spiritual growth actually happens
    3. The difference between effort and dependence
    4. The law of Christ vs. Sinai obligation
    5. Why love fulfills the law without returning to legalism

    If Christ truly is our life, then obedience flows from Him — not toward Him.

  • Episode 2: The Covenant You Cannot Mix
    Feb 17 2026

    In this 4-part series, we give you episode 2: What happens when Sinai and the covenant of promise are blended together?

    Scripture gives a clear answer: the promise is void. In this episode, we examine why Jesus was born under the law, and how His teachings must be understood in that covenant context.

    We explore how Christ fulfills and replaces the law without abolishing morality, how repentance fits inside grace, and why salvation stands secure apart from performance. We also address the mystery of discipline and reward for believers — correction without condemnation, kingdom participation without earning eternal life.
