The law is not there to get you to look at the law. The law is there to get you to look at Christ
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives deep into Romans 3:31, exploring the profound relationship between faith and the law. He discusses how the law isn't about strict adherence but rather about pointing us to Jesus Christ. Colin explains that many people, when faced with troubles or addictions, often try to conform more strictly to the law, leading to guilt and shame.
Instead, he suggests that the true purpose of the law is to direct us towards Jesus, who helps us believe and overcome our struggles. By sharing personal anecdotes and biblical teachings, Colin provides a fresh perspective on dealing with temptations and addictions through faith in Christ. He emphasises the paradoxical nature of Christian faith, where true psychological healing comes from looking to Jesus rather than adhering strictly to the law.
This episode is particularly relevant for those struggling with addictions or feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges, offering a compassionate and hopeful message that faith in Jesus can displace negative thoughts and lead to lasting change.
