(18:49) If you were wondering how an educated Arminian would read Romans chapter nine in a way contrary to how we have, here’s your answer (at least the first part of it). The authors make spotty references to this or that phrase in this or that verse and essentially ignore the immediate context of Paul’s […]

Exodus 15:1-21 | Are you grateful?
June 26, 2007 – 9:50 pm
(31:25) If you don’t understand how sinful you are and what Christ has done to forgive your sin you won’t be grateful. The reverse is true – if you can grasp how wretched you are and that Christ suffered the hell of God’s wrath on the cross in your place then deep and profound gratitude […]

Canons of Dort, Head 1, Articles 15 & 16 | Reprobation
June 11, 2007 – 8:22 pm
(28:15) Reprobation, which is the decree of God passing over people with His saving grace, very much touches on the issue of God’s justice. People naturally believe that this is not fair and all deserve a chance. But whom God chooses to give His saving grace and whom He passes over is up to Him. […]

June 11, 2007 – 8:18 pm

Exodus 12:1-13:16 | Remembrance and hope
June 5, 2007 – 7:41 am
(37:18) In this passage, the tenth plague occurs and Israel begins the Exodus. Much of the passage is taken up with the details of the Passover meal and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Why? The answer has to do with memory and tradition. Sermon Text: Exodus 12:1-13:16 New Testament Text: Hebrews 9:11-14
Bad reasons why you are not a Calvinist | part 2: Predestination and election
June 5, 2007 – 7:31 am
(28:50) Everyone agrees that the words “predestination” and “election” are in the Bible. Everyone also agrees that Romans 9-11 is a central passage in understanding what those words mean. Here, we work verse-by-verse through Romans 9:1-24, in order to show that the straightforward reading of this text indisputably teaches what we today call “Calvinism.”
Canons of Dort, Head 1, Articles 8-11 | Election and foreknowledge
June 5, 2007 – 6:51 am
(28:06) These articles respond to very specific errors the Arminians were propagating during the 16th century. In particular was the wrong idea that foreknowledge means that God knew which people would choose Him and on that basis God elected them. In this sermon we will establish the correct meaning of God’s foreknowledge. Sermon text: Canons […]

June 5, 2007 – 6:48 am
(37:42) The plagues God brings upon Egypt are one of the most fascinating biblical accounts.

Ultimately, the plagues reveal that God will finally defeat Satan. Sermon Text: Exodus 7:8-11:10 […]

Exodus 6:2-7:7 | Yahweh fulfills His promises
June 5, 2007 – 6:41 am
(29:40) Israel at this point in their history are at an all time low. They can’t even listen to Moses. Into this context God speaks. He tells Moses and the people that “He is the LORD” (Yahweh).
