In this profound episode, Jesse Schwamb delves into the theological treasure found in John Owen's work on being free from sin's dominion. As Christians enter a new year, the question of our relationship with sin becomes particularly relevant. Owen's core thesis—that sin still lives in believers but no longer rules them—provides a framework for understanding the Christian's true freedom. Jesse unpacks how union with Christ fundamentally changes our relationship with sin, breaking its dominion while acknowledging its continued presence. This episode serves as both theological instruction and pastoral encouragement, reminding believers that our freedom comes not from our perfect grip on Christ, but from Christ's unbreakable grip on us. Key Takeaways Sin's Presence vs. Sin's Dominion: Sin continues to dwell in believers, but it no longer reigns as king—it remains a presence, but not a ruling power. Understanding True Dominion: Sin's dominion means it calls the shots, sets the direction, issues orders, and gets obeyed. The diagnostic question is: "Is sin merely present in you, or is sin in charge of you?" Freedom Through Union with Christ: Our freedom from sin's dominion comes not through self-improvement but through our union with Christ in his death and resurrection. Evidence of Grace's Reign: The very battle against sin is often evidence that sin has lost its dominion—tyrants don't get resisted by loyal subjects. Practical Test for Sin's Rule: Owen provides diagnostic questions: Do you make peace with sin or war on it? Do you hide sin or expose it? Do you justify sin or confess it? Do you plan and cherish sin or grieve and fight it? Ordinary Means of Grace: God provides ordinary means—Word, prayer, sacraments, and fellowship—as the channels through which grace's reign is established and maintained. Christian Hope: Our freedom is not based on our perfect grip on Christ but on Christ's unbreakable grip on us. Grace doesn't just forgive rebellion; it overthrows the rebel regime. Understanding Sin's Dominion When we speak of sin's "dominion," we're referring to something far more significant than sin's mere influence or temptation. Dominion speaks to a reign, a throne, a ruling power. In his exposition of Romans 6:12, John Owen helps us see that sin's dominion means it "calls the shots, sets the direction, issues the order, and gets obeyed." This is crucial to understand because many Christians confuse sin's presence with sin's rule. The diagnostic question Owen poses is profound: "Is sin merely present in you or is sin in charge of you?" This distinction helps us avoid both the despair of perfectionism and the complacency of antinomianism. Sin's presence in our lives—even when it causes us to stumble—is not the same as sin having dominion. In fact, our very resistance to sin is often evidence that sin's dominion has been broken, for "tyrants don't usually get resisted by loyal subjects." Freedom Through Union with Christ The gospel's answer to sin's dominion is not found in our determination or moral improvement but in our union with Christ. This union fundamentally changes everything about our relationship with sin. As Jesse articulates from Owen's work, "Grace doesn't just pardon rebels; grace transfers rebels into a new kingdom." This is the heart of the Christian's freedom—not that we've somehow eliminated sin from our lives, but that we've been brought under a new reign, a new dominion. Christ didn't merely come to forgive sin's guilt; He came to break sin's rule. Through our union with Christ in His death and resurrection, we have died to sin's dominion and been raised to walk in newness of life. This means that our fight against sin isn't waged in our own strength but in the power of Christ who has already secured the victory. The Christian life is "warfare under a victorious King," not a horror movie where we're unarmed against an unstoppable monster. The Ordinary Means of Grace Owen reminds us that God has provided ordinary yet extraordinary means through which grace's reign is established and maintained in our lives. These are not secret spiritual hacks or techniques but the divinely appointed channels through which the Spirit works: the Word of God (not merely read, but received with faith and applied with honesty); prayer (not as performance, but as dependence); the sacraments (as God's visible grace to strengthen faith); and fellowship and accountability (because "lone sheep Christianity is basically wolf delivery"). As Jesse notes, "These are simple but profound, ordinary but extraordinary in their effect." The neglect of these ordinary means doesn't create mysterious seasons of spiritual dryness—it creates predictable weakness. Our freedom from sin's dominion is maintained not through extraordinary spiritual experiences but through ordinary faithfulness to God's appointed means. Memorable Quotes "Take heart, Christian, you're not free because your grip on Christ is perfect. You're free because Christ's grip on you is unbreakable." "The Christian life is not a horror movie where sin is the monster and you're unarmed in the basement. The Christian life is warfare, yes, but it's warfare under a victorious King." "Sin doesn't need you to throw a parade for it. Sin just needs you to keep paying tribute." Guest Bio Jesse Schwamb serves as co-host of The Reformed Brotherhood podcast alongside Tony Arsenal. With a passion for making Reformed theology accessible and practical, Jesse brings theological depth combined with pastoral sensitivity to each episode. His ability to distill complex theological concepts into applicable wisdom makes him a trusted voice in Reformed circles. Full Transcript
When we hear the term spiritual gifts, most Christians see it as this mystical, almost magical work of God that comes over you, and all of a sudden, you can speak in tongues or heal people, but is that how the Bible describes spiritual gifts in practice?The Pentecostal movement has, in many ways, driven the conversation about spiritual gifts and the way that we use language to discuss them. Even many Reformed Christians have been affected by their teaching and often describe the work of the Holy Spirit through gifts as something so miraculous and supernatural that their operation must be opposed to ordinary means. But Paul, who is the apostle that teaches the most about spiritual gifts, doesn't treat them that way. In Romans 1, he plainly talks about imparting spiritual gifts to the church in Rome and in Corinthians and Timothy, he talks about spiritual gifts as if they can be practiced and built up in a way that suggests that they are not as “magical” as the Pentecostals would have us think. So here's the question: If spiritual gifts are not opposed to ordinary means, how should we think of spiritual gifts and their use in the church?Timecodes00:00:00 Intro00:01:01 Miracle of God's grace00:06:21 Healing is a grace of God00:14:57 Diversity of gifts00:20:28 Gift of language a grace00:28:59 Gifts that are hard to see as pure miraculous manifestations00:42:26 Given at times to unbelievers00:52:06 Given to all believersProduction of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Many of you know I am taking this summer as a sabbatical, in large part to make significant progress on my doctoral dissertation. Maybe you even know that the focus of my work is on C.S. Lewis. What you might be wondering is how all this ties directly to my ministry with St. Patrick. Well, to put it simply, what I love about Lewis is what I love about St. Patrick. If you've never dug deeper into Lewis' thought and writing than his children's stories and popular theology, you might be surprised to learn that he was primarily a literary scholar, focusing on Medieval and Renaissance literature. The thing that fascinated him (and me!) about this era of time is the way people still believed that every jot and tittle of creation was a part of a well-ordered and beautiful picture of God's love for humanity – a cathedral of the grace in which we live, move, and have our being. He was concerned about what kind of discipleship would be required today to invite “modern” people out of the cold, dark, and chaotic infinitude of the myths they're believing, and welcome them into the marvelous light and warmth of God's true story. Unsurprisingly, the answer for Lewis, and for St. Patrick, has largely been that the better story features at its center a kind of symbolic participation. As we continue on the scenic route along our “Godspeed series,” we stop today to consider the profound fact that the post-resurrection appearances of Christ feature a disproportionate number of episodes involving Jesus sharing meals with disciples. In a world where we often think of meals as logistical interruptions in our workflow, Jesus redirects our attention to the central priority of the table in his own kingdom. It is unsettlingly revealing that the disciples on the road to Emmaus got a 3-hour Bible study from the Word of God Himself and didn't manage to recognize Him until they stopped for dinner. I can't wait to unpack that with you all!

In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey is joined by a panel of experienced pastors and church planters to discuss the vital role of the ordinary means of grace in church planting. The conversation explores how God's Word, sacraments, and prayer serve as the primary instruments for planting and growing churches, contrasting these biblical methods with modern consumer-driven and franchise models. Together, they share their personal experiences, challenges, and insights on how a faithful adherence to Reformed theology and practices impacts church planting efforts. Listeners will gain valuable perspectives on the importance of maintaining theological integrity while engaging in evangelism and community outreach. Whether you're involved in church planting or simply interested in how the ordinary means of grace shape the life and mission of the church, this episode offers rich theological reflection and practical wisdom.
