From the pulpit of Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, listen as the words of Paul are explained showing what the law could not do, why the law could not do it, how the Lord has done what the law could not, and the result that is produced in us. Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones walks us through these four points in his sermon on Romans 8:3-4. The law cannot enable us to fill its own demands, which is righteousness. A believing Christian is no longer under the law or the under the reign of sin, but rather living a life under grace in a new life with Christ. Why does the law fail at this? Because it depends on us and our efforts and we are weak. However, it does show us our great need to be delivered from sin. Finally, at the heart of the Gospel, God has provided salvation for us through His own actions. Christ gave the law, but not in order to save men. He alone produces the only way of salvation and justification. Dr. Lloyd-Jones continually emphasizes Paul’s point, the law cannot save us and that it only allows us to see the sin in ourlives.
