In this episode of the Reformed Brotherhood Podcast, hosts Jesse Schwamb and Tony Arsenal explore the Scots Confession, focusing on the transformational role of the law in a Christian’s life. They articulate how the law, once perceived as a source of condemnation, is redefined through the lens of Christ as a source of encouragement and guidance. This transformation is likened to the role of a personal trainer, pushing believers towards spiritual growth and good works. With insights from John Knox, they emphasize the nurturing aspect of the law, which now serves to build up Christian identity and foster holiness.
The hosts draw comparisons between the law’s guidance and that of a drill instructor, highlighting its purpose in instructing believers on what it means to be a follower of Christ.
