Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel – God’s Law | Rapp Report Daily 0140 | Striving for Eternity

Welcome to The Rapid Pull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.

This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Continuing to look at our statement on social justice and the gospel, something that's available for you to read in detail and to sign on your own at statementonsocialjustice .com.

We're looking today at article number 4, God's Law. It states, we affirm that God's law as summarized in the

Ten Commandments, more succinctly, summarized in the two great commandments and manifest in Jesus Christ, is the only standard of unchanging righteousness.

Violation of that law is what constitutes sin. We deny that any obligation that does not arise from God's commandments can be legitimately imposed on Christians as prescription for righteous living.

We further deny the legitimacy of any charge of sin or call to repentance that does not arise from violations of God's commandments.

This is a very important article because of the fact that we have many people arguing that other people are guilty of things that past generations have done.

When you call that a sin, that is not from scripture. We can only say that something is a sin when it violates

God's commands that he has laid out in scripture. That is what we are to do, and that's where we see

God's law for us to understand. This podcast is part of the Striving for Eternity ministry. For more content, or to request a speaker or seminar to your church, go to strivingforeternity .org.
