About this book

The two main teachings of the Bible can be summed up in these words: law and gospel. But what are law and gospel?

Understanding the difference between what is "law" and what is "gospel" in the Bible is important. Misunderstanding and confusing law and gospel lie at the root of many of the problems plaguing God's people today.

Law and Gospel is a solid but easy-to-follow presentation of these two foundational teachings in the Bible. By understanding them and what they mean for you, you will grow in your faith and life as a Christian and be more equipped to help others understand what law and gospel mean for them as well!
