Cessationism is heresy a doctrine of demons repent and be filled with The Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues find a Pentecostal Bible believing church turn away from cessationism now cessationists are blaspheming the Holy Ghost
15:16 If you’re taking God’s unconditional sovereignty out of verse 9:13 it shows you completely misunderstand Paul’s point. Who do you think Paul means by Esau now? And who is Jacob? If you don’t get those questions right you don’t understand what’s going on at all. Hence, Calvinism.
28:48 Sucha a shame. You can do all these mental gymnastics to make digestible this hideous theology of election and deprivation when you could have used that same effort to just conclude what Jesus teaches, that yes, God decided on “pre justice” for all people, and he’s given forgiveness to all people. So simple. And it’s the Gospel message.

26:07 Here’s your myopia. We don’t say it’s not fair for God to send people to hell for no reason, we say your depiction of God that he made some people with no possibility but going to hell because of how he infallibly made them, is hideously wrong.
24:10 of COURSE it’s not fair that God would choose Jacob over Esau. And it’s a great thing he didn’t! The Jews thought he did, and Paul is correcting them.
21:56 “American evangelical Arminianism latent in our society that’s never been removed.” Hallelujah. That’s called biblical truth. And it won’t be removed.
19:08 Except, the unbelieving Jews that Paul has in mind as his audience at this point WOULD NOT respond at all the way Paul’s writing is flowing. They have zero problem with election, in fact they love it. It’s modern Christians who object to election. So your test shows that Calvinism completely fails. In fact, the opposite is true. The test proves Paul is demolishing the Jews’ doctrine of election, not establishing it.
I am not aware of ANY church in the spiritual wasteland of Chicago that actually practices regenerate church membership, nor of any actual 1689 Confessional Baptist church in the spiritual wasteland of Chicago, and as far as the "Orthodox" Presbyterian "Church" goes, all you need to do is show up like any Ananias, and you're in.
Brother, Dr. VanaDruen started at the Noahtic covenant to show God's covenant with the creation in its entirety. But isn't that covenant just a reestablishing of the covenant made with Adam? If not why? And if so why didn't he start from that point? Thanks
I would greatly like to have conversation with Dewey and this channel. I was baptized at a very young age of 7 and was baptized in the Spirit to be reborn 2 years ago at the age of 37. I as well grew up on hearing about the pre-tribulation rapture and after being reborn, sought it through the Scriptures to find Matt 24:29-31; 1 Cor 15:20-25; 2 Thess 2:3-8 (Jesus returns and destroys him with the brightness of His coming); 1 Thess 4:15 (explaining the living by no means preceed the dead). Rev 20:4-6 (which seems to include those who would go through the great tribulation). I also have had many conversations asking how and mostly it is met with ad hominen and also some heated backlash. I would greatly like conversation in a mutal love for God and His word (Jesus Christ) to set aside emotion and even my own pride at times to seek what He is telling us. I believe Paul explained that when we fight with one another, he said we would essentially tear eachother apart and it is very difficult for me to find genuine conversation in love, faith and hope in general groups or channels. Please respond if you all have time to speak with me. Blessings to you.
Could you get these great brothers to comment on the “providential preservation of scripture “ both how this might have influenced the conversations that took place in 1689 and among the Reformed and also how we might see this now in light of more recent believing scholarship in the area of what God has blessed and preserved for us today ?
A helpful conversation on Theonomy. My issue with it has always been the flattening of the law, and a deviation of the understanding of the three fold division of the law from a Reformed tradition. You brought up a good point about NT example of church discipline. Also, I find it odd that many who advocate for Theonomy pick and choose what civil/judicial laws are still applicable. Example: Tattoos Lev 19:28.
Progressiveness (wokeness) is a cultic movement. And, it has affected professing Christianity significantly. Christians should have an apologetic against this movement, and part of this involves an understanding of current day politics. Failing to focus on the issues of the day would actually reduce the Christian witness.
I'm not blind to the issues in the Republican party, but the Democrat party has no redeeming virtue in my mind. Abortion, unbiblical sexual practices, and indoctrination of youth into gender ideology and wokeness are abominations. No responsible believer would support the Democrat party and further their aims. Unfortunately, some of the Republican party support LGBT issues, but it is the minority.
Would love to have you come and teach this topic the person of Christ in austin how would I request this as a seminar to our church who would I contact?
I'm blessed to say that I attend GCBC where Pastor Rob V. Is the pastor and the man you heard today is the same man we see all the time. Spending and being spent for the Lord.
Thank you for these podcast with Dr. Malone, they gave me a resource to send to my parents to help them understand the issues going on in my church today. My church adopted the LBC 1689 about 4 years ago, and I joined that church because of that. But now they want to start teaching infant baptism. We learn this week if the church will allow this (by congregational vote). I, of course voted that the pastor resign and the elders only teach believers only baptism. Sadly I am sure that they will be allow to teach infant baptism and I will end up leaving the church, I do not share Dr. Malone's advice to remain in a paedobaptist church if there isn't any other Baptist churches to fellowship with. I am thinking about starting a home church and work on planting a Reformed Baptist Church here is our little town. Only I'm not ordained so I'm not sure it is proper to do so.
Is there a difference when speaking of God's relation to man pre-fall vs. post? Isn't the knowledge now being suppressed so that what we say of Adam can't always be said of all men? I haven't heard a reformed "Thomist" deny this trifecta. P.s. I love Lane Tipton!
Thank you so much for posting. I like many, were brought up pre mill. As time went along I had a serious doubt in my heart of the rapture. Now, as a growing and mature believer, seeing that the Christ church IS ISRAEL and the fulfillment of promises and the Second Coming being a 1 time event to separate the Goats and Sheep, this breakdown by Mr Waldron was a precise scripture walk thru to nail home a strong argument for the AMill view. Love it.
It's embarassing. They did not understand that the HOLY SPIRIT is THE FATHER IN A SPIRIT FORM, that is, NO THIRD divine person exists. Jesus states "(1) God is (2) a spirit". Well, Jesus simply calls Him sometimes (1) "Father", sometimes (2) "Spirit" (Holy) depending on the situation, but in both cases you have the SAME ONE GOD, not TWO different Divine Persons! EVIDENCE of that can be obtained by checking out who is INSIDE JESUS: ONLY THE FATHER is inside Jesus to HELP him, "I am in the Father and the FATHER IN ME". Neither A. the "Lord who gives life" (a nonexisting Lord) nor B. the Paraclete IS THERE, He will be sent after Jesus' death! The ONLY ONE with Jesus is the FATHER, thus you are now able to IDENTIFY who is the HOLY SPIRIT INSIDE JESUS: THE FATHER! The Paraclete is NOT the Holy Spirit! Jn. 14:26 has been simply tampered with by a trinitarian supporter who "was short of Gods" (not happy with the nonexisting "Lord who gives life") and decided to "upgrade" the unknown Paraclete. "On that day YOU will know that I am in my FATHER, YOU are in ME, and I am in YOU.", i.e. you can see that NO PARACLETE IS THERE, just the FATHER and the SON ! The Father is of course the almighty God. The almighty God does NOT COME PERSONALLY here on earth "the world has not known you". This is why "No man has seen God at any time.", INVISIBILITY is not an issue, He cannot be seen because He is ABSENT! The HOLY SPIRIT (Spirit of God) is THE PRESENCE of the almighty God - however only in the form of a spirit ( "God is a spirit") - who INTERACTS with people. You can thus see the difference between God and the Holy Spirit: God is absent, his Spirit is here instead. Being a spirit means: NO ONE is here in reality ! This is why Jesus INHERITS the kingdom of God "...and has given ALL THINGS into His hand." Jesus HAD BEEN that One almighty God, He differs in that He is not omnipotent anymore. God is thus made by the Son and the Father in form of a spirit. We can say that God is more than One and less than Two in number.
Is Waldron not a 1689 Federalist? I wouldn't have answered that "the Church is Israel" and wouldn't have framed the response to "has God broken his promises to Israel?" in the way that Waldron did, saying the promises are being fulfilled in the Church. Instead, I'd say we have to delineate and distinguish the promises God have to Israel (which were temporary and were fulfilled) and the promises that were typologically promised to the Church through Israel's promises (which are eternal and belong only to the Church). Anyways, would appreciate any thoughts here
