Cross Defense: The Apologetic of Infant Baptism with Christians Opposed To It
Thursday Nov 20, 2014
Thursday Nov 20, 2014
Many non-sacramental Christians perceive us sacramental Christians as legalistic and weak in faith. What is behind this and how should we make our defense? Direction of theology; mingling of justification and sanctification; Law and Gospel distinguished; God gifting or humans acting in obedience?; Does the depravity of original sin allow decision to believe and be baptized without God’s grace in the means of grace?

Steadfast Throwdown: Predestination Part 2
Monday Nov 03, 2014
Monday Nov 03, 2014
Pr. Matt Richard continues discussing his paper, “Why the Doctrine of Predestination Matters.” What happens when we try to reconcile the seemingly contradictory doctrines of 1) original sin with 2) God’s justification of the sinner and 3) God’s eternal election? Why should we keep these doctrines “in tension” according to God’s Word? Is the teaching of predestination a threatening or a comforting doctrine?

Steadfast Throwdown: Predestination Part 1
Friday Oct 31, 2014
Friday Oct 31, 2014
Pr. Matt Richard enters the “Throwdown” ring to discuss his paper, “Why the Doctrine of Predestination Matters.” Is the doctrine of predestination simply some useless wrangling among theologians, or does it really mean something for every Christian? What happened during the 19th century when various Lutheran church bodies debated this doctrine? How can you best answer the age-old question(s), “Why are some saved and not others?”
