Episode notes
Christ's Immediate Yet Growing Lordship
- Sinclair Ferguson emphasizes Christ now rules by subduing us to himself as King from the moment we trust him.
- This lordship is immediate but grows as the Spirit uncovers hidden sin and resistance in us.

- Jesus reclaims the dominion Adam lost, exercising authority earned as the last Adam.
- That dominion advances through the spread of the gospel as instructed in Matthew 28:18–20.
Yield Daily To His Reign
- Yield daily in love to Jesus so his kingly power can rule increasingly over your life.
- Expect ongoing challenges and deeper surrender rather than an instant perfect conformity.
