Sinclair Ferguson: a treasure and a giant of the faith, given by our gracious God to His bride. So blessed to have access to the likes of him and RC Sproul.
Grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone... Thank you my triune God for baptizing me in the Holy Spirit. For turning hope into assurance. Thank you for getting me out of the religion of my youth and saving me.
coming from a cult background Calvin was a Geneva crackpot. just finished a work associated around tulip and am now labeled a 5-pnt Calvinist. ain't grace amazing!
In fact the G-d The Almighty and gracious father of Jesus Christ loved the world that sent his son as Savior, that is Grace as well. When one sad to Jesus good master, Jesus does respond good is my father!
What is unfortunate is that no one mentioned is an author of the Bible. Their understanding of the text would have been most definitely jaded by centuries of altered doctrine. However, they are still viewed as thought leaders. Misinterpretation is the same no matter what religion you prescribe to.
Salvation is not a train that anyone can just choose to jump onto...no man can elect himself unto sainthood...a profession of faith justifies no-one, it's the possession of saving faith (received as a gift of grace) that justifies...and this only applies to the pre-chosen Unconditional Elect...
It is odd though that Scripture speaks of God desiring the salvation of ALL individuals and Jesus weeps over the state of individuals who will not come to Him. The calvinistic understanding of Scripture is a relatively NEW interpretation of Scripture and is not consistent with the teachings of the early church.
I'm certain Jesus must be grieved when He hears people say he only died for the "elect". Calvinism was first articulated by Augustine (a Roman Catholic) in the 4th century. So, the Church did quite well for 300 years without this doctrine. The Biblical doctrine of salvation is best described by the “Corporate View of Election” or the “Provisionalist Salvation Doctrine”. Don’t look to be right; look to find truth.
i don't understand why this is a reformed teaching of grace but not holding to the true KJV bible & are using a false bible! i can't share it now. I can not lead people into the erroneous bibles...
A false Bible????? Where did you come up with that nonsense? The KJV is a good translation but it is not perfect. Dr. Ferguson is using the ESV which is a good translation, but also is not perfect. You ought to study the subject. If you are interested, Dr. James White does a great deal of work on the subject. You are able to find his great work on UA-cam.
Sinclair Ferguson is a wonderful Pastor, his love of God penetrates in every word he speaks, very thankful to have these great sermons.
Great teacher and biblical. God bless Ferguson🙏

Oh that we could hear this in my presbyterian church.....
Oh that we could hear this in my outside denominational church....
A perfect explanation og who grace is. Jesus himself is all the grace you would wish to have. Thank you MOG.
Praise God!
God perseveres with his saints. Wow
Awesome !
Excellent!
GRACE IS A PERSON, JESUS CHRIST.

@@mell-l6y Get some help with your writing ability. You obviously don't understand what the Bible is teaching.

Amen

So you existed before Augustine did ?😂
