Grace Before Genesis: Christ the Sinner’s Surety | Marrowcast Ep. 6

Your sin did not surprise God, and Jesus Christ is not the emergency plan God devised after everything went wrong. In this episode of Marrowcast, John and Jeffrey begin Chapter 2 of The Marrow of Modern Divinity and explore what Fisher calls “the eternal purpose of grace.” Before the foundation of the world, God purposed to save fallen sinners through Jesus Christ. What He purposed before time, He promised in time and performed in the fullness of time through the incarnation, obedience, death, and resurrection of His Son. This does not mean that God simply ignored His law or relaxed the demands of His justice. The debt still had to be paid, the curse still had to be borne, and the corruption of fallen humanity still had to be repaired. The good news is that God laid the whole burden upon Christ. Jesus entered the covenant as the sinner’s Surety, taking responsibility for a debt that was not His own. He satisfied divine justice, fulfilled the law, bore its curse, and secured the salvation of His people. Grace does not sneak sinners around the law. Grace gives sinners the whole Christ. In This Episode John and Jeffrey discuss: * Why the covenant of grace was not God’s backup plan * What The Marrow means by the “law of faith” * The gospel as “good, merry, glad, and joyful tidings” * How God purposed grace before time, promised grace in time, and performed grace in Christ * Why divine mercy never comes at the expense of divine justice * What it means for Christ to become the sinner’s Surety * Why God looked to Christ for the payment of His people’s debt * The difference between Christ satisfying our guilt and the Spirit repairing our fallen nature * Why election should comfort sinners rather than prevent them from coming to Christ * How the law condemns, while the gospel freely gives us Christ Key Takeaway Grace is older than your guilt. The debt was ours.The bond was Christ’s.The payment was full. God looked for the debt from Christ, and Christ paid it all.

Marrow Minute: Our Feet Never Touch the Ground

The way back to God still requires everything the law demanded: perfect obedience and complete satisfaction for sin. The gospel is not that God lowered the standard or ignored His justice. The gospel is that Christ accomplished what we could never provide. He fulfilled every precept of the law. He bore its curse for our sin. He walked the entire road home on behalf of His people. Thomas Boston captures it beautifully: sinners united to Christ are carried back into the presence of God, but their own feet never touch the ground. We do not return by our obedience, our improvement, or our performance. We are carried back to God in Christ. 🎧 Hear more in Episode 5 of Marrowcast Get full access to Marrowcast at www.marrowcast.com/subscribe

The Covenant of Works Explained: Is Fallen Man Still Bound? | Marrowcast Ep. 5

If Adam broke the Covenant of Works, does that mean the law no longer matters? Or does “do this and live” still stand over fallen man?In Episode 5 of Marrowcast, John and Jeff continue walking through Chapter 1 of The Marrow of Modern Divinity and discuss the Covenant of Works after the fall. Adam broke the covenant, but fallen sinners are still confronted by the righteous demand of God’s law.This matters because the gospel only becomes clear when we understand why we cannot be saved by doing. The law still commands, still exposes, still condemns, and still shuts every mouth before God. But Christ comes as the last Adam, fulfilling what Adam failed to do and bearing the curse Adam brought upon us.In this episode, we talk about:What happened when Adam broke the Covenant of WorksWhy fallen man is still under the law’s demandWhy “do this and live” cannot save sinnersHow the law exposes our need for ChristWhy Christ’s obedience is good news for guilty peopleThe law says, “Do this and live.”The gospel says, “Christ has done it; come and live.”Listen, subscribe, and learn more at:www.marrowcast.com#Marrowcast #CovenantOfWorks #LawAndGospel #ReformedTheology #TheMarrowOfModernDivinity Get full access to Marrowcast at www.marrowcast.com/subscribe

Marrow Minute: If Adam Is Only an Example, So Is Christ

In this Marrow Minute, we look at why Romans 5 will not let us reduce Adam to a bad example or Christ to a good example. Adam and Christ are covenant heads. In Adam comes sin, condemnation, and death. In Christ comes righteousness, justification, and life. The gospel is not advice for becoming better. It is the announcement of what Christ has accomplished for his people. Marrow Theology, Practically Applied. Get full access to Marrowcast at www.marrowcast.com/subscribe

What About Original Sin? Adam Fell & So Did We | Marrowcast Ep. 4

What happened when Adam fell? Did he merely ruin himself, or did all mankind fall in him? In Episode 4 of Marrowcast, John and Jeff walk through Chapter 1, Sections 2–3 of The Marrow of Modern Divinity and discuss original sin and Adam’s fall. If we fell in Adam, then we do not need a little help. We need a new covenant head. We need Christ. In this episode, we talk about: What original sin means How Adam’s fall became our fall Why sinners are guilty and corrupt by nature How Christ answers Adam’s failure with perfect obedience and grace Adam fell, and so did we. But Christ obeyed, suffered, died, and rose for sinners.

Marrow Minute: Why We Need the Covenant of Works

Why do we need the covenant of works? We need the covenant of works because it shows us what Christ came to fulfill. Adam was placed under a command: do this and live. But Adam fell. And in Adam, we fell. The gospel is that Christ came as the last Adam. Where Adam disobeyed, Christ obeyed. Where Adam failed, Christ stood. Where Adam brought death, Christ brings life. The covenant of works does not send the believer back to Adam. It sends us forward to Christ, and we get the obedience of Another. That’s Marrow theology, practically applied.

“Do This and Live”: The Covenant of Works Explained | Marrowcast Ep. 3

What did God require of Adam in the garden? What does “do this and live” mean? And why does the Covenant of Works matter for understanding grace, Christ, and the gospel? In Episode 3 of Marrowcast, John and Jeff walk through Chapter 1, Section 10 of The Marrow of Modern Divinity and discuss the Covenant of Works—the covenant Adam broke and Christ fulfills. Before we can rightly understand the Covenant of Grace, the free offer of Christ, and the comfort of the gospel, we need to understand what man lost in Adam and why sinners cannot be saved by doing. In this episode, we talk about: What the Covenant of Works is Why “do this and live” is law, not gospel How Adam’s failure sets the stage for Christ’s obedience Why this matters for assurance, preaching, and troubled consciences The gospel is not “do this and live.”The gospel is Christ has done, therefore live.

Are Christians Under the Law? | Marrowcast Ep. 2

Which Law Are We Talking About? | Marrowcast Episode 2 When Christians talk about “the law,” we are not always talking about the same thing. In this episode, Jeffrey Perry and John Meeks work through the different ways Scripture speaks about the law, including the law written on the heart, the covenant of works, the Mosaic law, and the law’s continuing use in the Christian life. Why do these distinctions matter? Because confusion about the law eventually creates confusion about the gospel, assurance, obedience, and the finished work of Christ. Marrowcast is a podcast about The Marrow of Modern Divinity, law and gospel, assurance, and the free offer of Christ.

Welcome to Marrowcast

In the first episode of Marrowcast, John and Jeff introduce the heart behind the show and begin setting the table for a walk through The Marrow of Modern Divinity. This is not a podcast for polished performers, spiritual résumé builders, or people who have already figured out how to stop being sinners. It is for worn-out Christians, recovering legalists, confused saints, and anyone who has been taught to look inside themselves for peace instead of looking to Christ. The conversation centers on why The Marrow still matters, especially in churches where the gospel is often affirmed on paper but buried under spiritual fine print in practice. John and Jeff talk about law, gospel, assurance, repentance, faith, obedience, and the danger of preaching Christ as though He were only for the already-improved. zkbxi2yx Get full access to Marrowcast at www.marrowcast.com/subscribe
