Grace and Law II: 3 Responses to Our Portion
This week, John continues to use Psalm 119:57-61 to lay the foundation for a discussion of the Christian’s relationship to the law.
We heard last week about the foundational importance of having God as our portion. Today, we discuss 3 responses fueled by God as our portion:
Love and gratitude that lead to obedience
Dependence on God
Determination to apply all that we find in His Word
