First Baptist Church Thomson, Ga

This sermon traces the connection between God’s Law and the Cross, showing that while the Law reveals God’s holiness and exposes our inability to keep it, Jesus came to do what we could not—perfectly fulfill the Law, take our place as the righteous for the unrighteous, and satisfy God’s justice through His death. As we look at 1 Peter 3:18 and the broader story of Scripture, we discover that Christ’s sacrifice was not merely an example, but a substitution that deals fully with our sin so that we might be forgiven and brought back into a right relationship with God.
