The guys are back in The 1689 Confession, Chapter 19 paragraphs 4 and 5, discussing the Law of God. This time Joe and Jimmy hit the civil laws of the Old Covenant and go back to the moral law as perpetually blinding for the church, even under the New Covenant. Plus, does Jimmy fly in First Class while his wife and kids fly among the commoners?
To go deeper into the moral, civil, and ceremonial divisions of the law, pick up From the Finger of God: The Biblical and Theological Basis for the Threefold Division of the Law by Philip Ross.

The 1689 on Worship (22.3)
The guys discuss the 1689 Confession, Chapter 22, paragraph 3 on prayer in corporate worship. What is prayer? What forms should prayer take in the public assembly? And the guys recommend some of their favorite books on prayer like, The Valley of Vision, John Bunyan’s treatise on Prayer, The Bible and the Closet by Watson and Lee, and Praying the Bible by Don Whitney. Plus, Jimmy teaches Joe to speak Canadia. Our Sponsor All this month, Doctrine and Devotion is sponsored by Media Gratiae, a small nonprofit ministry that makes incredible documentaries and multimedia Bible studies. This week we want to tell you about their project, Behold Your God: Rethinking God Biblically multimedia Bible Study. This is a 12-week, plug-and-play multimedia Bible study on the character of God, applying who God is to what we do as Christians, and deals with subjects like worship, service, evangelism, holiness, and the dangers of pragmatism and false conversion. The filmmakers travel to England, Scotland, Wales, and New England to incorporate the witness of Church History through some significant figures your church needs to know about including Edwards, Rutherford, and even the anti-hero, Charles Finney! Features contributions from Paul Washer, Richard Owen Roberts, Conrad Mbewe, Anthony Mathenia, and more. The study is made up of a 13 DVD set, and a corresponding daily devotional workbook that each person in the study will need their own copy of. The entire first week of the study is available for free, for your evaluation, at https://mediagratiae.org/collections/behold-your-god-rethinking-god-biblically/products/behold-your-god-13-dvd-setSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
