God’s Goodness = Man’s Worst Problem
The most terrifying truth of Scripture is that God is good. – Paul Washer My good friend and dear brother Marcus Pittman of Crown Rights Media had the opportunity to interview Paul Washer at the 2011 Sermon Index Conference in Lilburn, Georgia a few weeks ago.

10 Reasons Believers Are Sovereignly Sealed
November 4, 2011
A couple of weeks ago I began a series on the doctrines of grace (Calvinism) in an attempt to systematically show how salvation is a work of God alone and why this must be so. These articles have been outlined with overwhelming Scriptural evidence revealing the sovereignty of God in His plan of redemption. The […]

10 Reasons the Holy Spirit Sovereignly Draws Men to Salvation
October 26, 2011
In this series outlining the evidences and reasons for why God is sovereign in the salvation of men, we now enter into the “I” of TULIP, which is the acronym for the doctrines of grace (otherwise known as Calvinism). “I” stands for “irresistible grace”, meaning God changes the will of man in such a way […]

The ultimate purposes of the Lord Jesus Christ shedding His blood on the cross was outlined in 14 Reasons Christ Sovereignly Redeems (a).

14 Reasons Christ Sovereignly Redeems (a)
October 19, 2011
We have reached the pinnacle and usually the most difficult to grasp of the doctrines of grace as we take a look at the atonement. What most people know as “limited atonement” (the ‘L’ of TULIP in Calvinism), I personally prefer to think of this doctrine as “definite atonement” or “particular redemption”. These latter two […]
10 Reasons God Sovereignly Elects
October 12, 2011
Part 2 of this series addresses 10 reasons, or evidences, that God sovereignly chose a people for Himself before the foundation of the world. As we saw in yesterday’s post, 10 Reasons Man Needs a Sovereign Savior, humans are incapable of choosing anything but their sin and rebellion against a holy God. Their mind, will, […]

The Traits of New Creatures in Christ
October 6, 2011
In studying last night, I came across a chart in the John MacArthur Bible Commentary titled The Traits of New Creatures in Christ. Just yesterday Manfred posted an article at Defending Contending titled, “What Is a True Christian?”, and I thought this post might be complementary to it. The first column in MacArthur’s chart concerns […]
