Sermon Overview
Reidhead clarifies that to accept Jesus as "King" is to accept His "Law" as the rule of life. He argues against "Lawless Grace," asserting that the King’s primary work in the believer is to write His Law upon the heart. He emphasizes that the Law is the "transcript of the King’s character" and the guide for Kingdom citizens.
Key Principles
Right to Rule: Accept Jesus as "King" over every detail of your life, including your budget, time, and secret thoughts.
Transcript of Heart:Treat the "Moral Law" (Ten Commandments) as a transcript of the King’s own holy character.
Kingdom Order: Reject "Lawless Grace"; realize that the King’s primary goal is to write His Law into your natural instincts.
Sermon on Mount:Use the "Sermon on the Mount" as the specific "Legal Code" for your conduct as a Kingdom citizen.
Grace as Power: Reach for "Grace" specifically as the supernatural power needed to obey the King's commands.
Royal Submission:Practice a "royal submission" where your primary motive is the honor and prestige of your King.
Rebellion as Insult: Treat "disobedience" as a personal insult to the King’s authority, not just a "mistake."
