The Reformed View of Predestination
from R.C. Sproul Jul 25, 2018 Category: Articles
In the Reformed view God from all eternity decrees some to election and positively intervenes in their lives to work regeneration and faith by a monergistic work of grace. To the non-elect God withholds this monergistic work of grace, passing them by and leaving them to themselves. He does not monergistically work sin or unbelief in their lives. Even in the case of the "hardening" of the sinners' already recalcitrant hearts, God does not, as Luther stated, "work evil in us (for hardening is working evil) by creating fresh evil in us."

Is Double Predestination Biblical?
from R.C. Sproul Jul 23, 2018 Category: Articles
"A horrible decree. . . ." "Most ruthless statement. . . ." "A terrible theological theory. . . ." "An illegitimate inference of logic. . . ." These and other similar epithets have been used frequently to articulate displeasure and revulsion at the Reformed doctrine of double predestination.

What’s So Great about the Sovereignty of God?
from Richard Phillips Jul 20, 2018 Category: Articles
A great many Christians can bear testimony to the earthshaking effects of realizing the sovereignty of God. These same kinds of testimonies are found in the Bible, perhaps none more profound than the prophet Isaiah’s account of his life-changing encounter with the sovereign Lord. If the apostle Paul is the New Testament figure most associated with the teaching of God’s sovereignty, his Old Testament counterpart is surely Isaiah. How did Isaiah gain his understanding of God’s sovereignty, and what influence did this have on his life? In other words, how would Isaiah answer the question, “What’s so great about the sovereignty of God?

What’s So Great about the Doctrines of Grace? by Richard Phillips: New to Paperback
from Nathan W. Bingham Jul 19, 2018 Category: Reformation Trust
In What’s So Great about the Doctrines of Grace? Dr. Richard Phillips takes us on a tour of the doctrines of grace, also known as the five points of Calvinism. With clear biblical exposition, he helps us to see the extent of our corruption in sin, to anchor our faith in the fullness of grace, and to trust in God’s promise to finish what He started—the salvation of His people. When we rely on God’s all-sufficient grace, we can truly live for His all-consuming glory.
