A Journey Through the Psalms: Reflections for Worried Hearts and Troubled Times
Preaching the Psalms Cycles A, B, C
Protestant Christians love to talk about grace. Spouting the words of Paul, many a preacher goes on and on about how "the Law" has fallen before the mighty wonder of God's grace in Christ Jesus. It's true. God's grace is sufficient for all. Yet still, God's "decrees," and "precepts," do matter. Even Jesus said he did not come to abolish the law, but to see it fulfilled (Matthew 5:17). Even though contemporary folk get a little itchy with rules and regulations, the truth is that even in the shadow of grace, rules are a pretty good idea.
