Summary

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Nate Wright, Joe Boot, and Michael Thiessen continue their discussion on God’s law by exploring theonomy, its place in church history, and its fulfillment in Christ. They unpack the relationship between law and love, explain why biblical justice requires restitution and proportionality, and challenge modern misunderstandings that pit grace against God’s law. The episode closes by showing that Jesus did not abolish the law, but fulfilled it perfectly, bore its penalty for His people, and calls His church to live in faithful obedience to all He has commanded.
