Episode Synopsis
Summary
In this conversation, the hosts discuss New City Catechism question number 13: Can anyone keep the law of God perfectly? They explore the concept of human inability to obey the law and the exception of Jesus. They also address the question of whether we are all equally bad and the idea of consistently breaking the law. The conversation concludes by highlighting the tension between our sinfulness and occasional obedience.
Takeaways
No mere human has been able to keep the law of God perfectly since the fall.
Jesus is the exception to this rule.
While we may desire to be good people, our definition of good often differs from what scripture says.
Even in our good actions, our motivations may be tainted, and we consistently break the law.
