The NXR Podcast - DAILY TRUTH - Crucified For Our Sin, Raised For Our Justification

00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.

00:00:02.080 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry

00:00:04.780 because you're spending your cash and your lives

00:00:07.080 on raising young children

00:00:08.680 in the fear and admonition of the Lord.

00:00:10.740 Praise God for you and that endeavor.

00:00:13.860 However, algorithms are a thing.

00:00:16.380 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.

00:00:19.000 And one major way that you can help to expand

00:00:21.760 the reach and effectiveness of this ministry

00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime

00:00:25.880 is by spending just a few moments

00:00:28.220 leaving us a five-star review.

00:00:31.340 Also, perhaps even more effective than that,

00:00:34.140 you can share our podcast with a friend.

00:00:36.560 We hope you'll take the time to do so.

00:00:38.480 Thank you so much.

00:00:39.760 God bless.

00:00:42.320 Jesus said,

00:00:43.500 man cannot live on bread alone,

00:00:45.140 but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.

00:00:47.960 You're listening to Daily Truth.

00:00:52.320 If the death of Jesus, rather,

00:00:54.580 completely satisfied the father's wrath towards sin, then why does our text say

00:01:00.680 that we are still in our sins if Jesus did not rise from the dead? The answer is that the

00:01:10.300 resurrection of Jesus was the reward for his sacrifice. If the reward is withheld,

00:01:17.060 it is because the sacrifice was deficient if god will not let his own son go free from the grave

00:01:26.960 and take his seat at his right hand in glory it can only be because his son's sacrifice for our

00:01:35.180 sins was defective it was not sufficient it is not enough the resurrection of jesus is what

00:01:45.360 validates the infinite value of the blood of Jesus. If Christ is raised, then his sacrifice

00:01:53.240 is sufficient. As one theologian once said, the resurrection is the exclamation point

00:02:01.920 to the crucifixion and more particularly to the statement of Christ himself as he was being

00:02:08.900 crucified when he says it is finished the empty tomb is the confirmation god's stamp of approval

00:02:18.380 the seal the promise that christ's statement on the cross it is finished was true that it is

00:02:28.640 indeed finished that the wrath of god has indeed been fully satisfied on our behalf

00:02:36.040 that the punishment you and i deserve as sinners for the wages of sin is death that punishment

00:02:44.940 has been dealt with in full the empty tomb is the proof as david said in the psalms you will not let

00:02:54.800 your holy one see decay why because everything he did was holy everything he is is holy and

00:03:05.260 everything he did is perfect final complete including his payment for sin on the cross

00:03:14.360 the resurrection is the confirmation of the crucifixion that penal substitutionary atonement

00:03:23.360 is sufficient that christ death as substitute in our place actually worked the resurrection says

00:03:34.240 that the cross worked. Jesus was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our

00:03:43.580 justification. Romans 4, 25. The late great Puritan, a Baptist, I might add, one of the few

00:03:53.400 good Puritan Baptists, but a Baptist nonetheless, God bless him. John Bunyan, author of Pilgrim's

00:04:00.360 progress. Fantastic allegorical story writer. Not as fantastic in his poetry, but this one

00:04:11.300 is good. Run, John, run. The law commands, but gives us neither feet nor hands. Far better news

00:04:20.000 the gospel brings. It bids us fly and gives us wings. Doubt not his sacrifice can save. God

00:04:27.460 sealed it that is he proved it with an empty grave he was raised for our justification

00:04:36.800 the resurrection is God's confirmation that the son's statement it is finished

00:04:44.040 it's true eternally true for all who believe can I be frank with you for just a second

00:04:51.680 right here at the end look some of you guys you're financially supporting this ministry

00:04:56.420 and from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you. I cannot thank you enough. However, some of you,

00:05:03.460 you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't afford it. Let's be honest.

00:05:10.500 I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our totalitarian political

00:05:18.000 elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID. We have written checks that we

00:05:25.800 simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession. We are

00:05:32.040 living in a recession right now regardless. Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of eggs

00:05:39.300 at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this ministry at this time, nor should

00:05:45.820 you, but you could still help us tremendously. I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so,

00:05:52.800 take one minute of your time. Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform,

00:05:59.820 iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be. This is the way the system works. We want to be innocent

00:06:06.100 as doves but shrewd as vipers. We need to be strategic. You leave us a five-star review

00:06:12.560 and our podcast shows up for more people. And the Word of God and courageous theology

00:06:19.340 applied in practical ways to every realm of life gets out there.

00:06:24.840 Help us get it out there.

00:06:26.560 Thanks for tuning in.
