What role does God’s law play in the lives of Christians? Doesn’t God’s grace make the law totally obsolete? Should Christians who are saved by grace strive to keep the Ten Commandments? These questions, and others like them, have been a source of friction among Christians for centuries. This book offers answers by providing a thorough biblical analysis of law and grace, demonstrating how they are not at odds with each other. Topics include: the role of God's law in a Christian’s life, the distinctions between justification and sanctification, what happens when laws collide (moral dilemmas), the doctrine of divine simplicity, solving the grace problem, responding to legalism and antinomianism in the church, and the role of law in heaven. "I highly commend to any and all the faithful and effective weaving together of how the Gospel is enhanced and embraced through the right understanding of God's gracious use of His law as revealed in His Word. It is not only faithful and effective but readable and devotional." Harry L. Reeder, III Briarwood Presbyterian Church, Birmingham, Alabama "In twenty-one years of preaching, I've struggled to communicate the meaning and importance of 'law' and the magnitude of grace to my audience. Jason's newest book is the most helpful explanation of law and grace I've ever read. His nuanced description of law could be one of the most important works of our time. In a culture in which relativism has destroyed fear and respect for law of any kind, we've lost the need for grace. Jason has given us a volume that will help us recover the gospel's most foundational truths." Brian Branam, Pastor Liberty Baptist Church, Dalton, GA "Law and Grace: The Basics is well-written, biblical, and instructive. Jason does an outstanding job describing the differences between legalism and antinomianism, and how these have affected the church. The book is so helpful because Jason takes difficult issues and distills them in a way that average Christians can understand. As a pastor, I find this invaluable."
