• As Christians who have trusted Jesus as Saviour and Lord, we are not under law — but the pattern starts there and moves on through Jesus enabling us to live right by demonstration and by His Spirit
This week’s episode is based on these Bible readings which are the ones set for February 12 (interdenominational scheme) — here are the links so you can read them in your preferred version:
Deuteronomy 30:15-20 — Choosing to love God is to prosper in life
Matthew 5:21-37 — Jesus shows and fulfils the spirit of the law
Corinthians 3:1-9 — Live by the Spirit, not by your preferences
