Doctrines Of Grace, Faith, Salvation, Election And Predestination (Pt1)

Last week, we posted our Book of the Month selection and it was 'Morning & Evening', a devotional written by Charles Spurgeon. It was very well received, but in the comments section were some brutal comments by the ultra-gracers and the defenders of John MacArthur, which is to say, Calvinism. So I thought a multi-part series on the King James Bible doctrines of grace would be edifying and hopefully instructive.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:8-10 (KJB)

On this episode of Rightly Dividing, we are diving into the biblical doctrines of grace, as well as salvation, election, faith and predestination. We will not be teaching of or from a 'system of theological writings' by 'esteemed men of God', that's not what you do in a Bible study. In a Bible study, you study biblical doctrine, rightly divided as commanded in 2 Timothy 2 by our apostle Paul. We live in a day and age where you are forced 'pick one' from either Column A wherein resides Calvinism, or from Column B where we see Arminianism. This is a false narrative, and leads you nowhere every time. Remember in the book of Acts where the apostles, looking to replace Judas, gave God two choices and cast lots so God could 'pick one'? Lol, God picked their enemy Saul to be their leader. That's what it looks like when the mind of man goes head-to-head with the Mind of Almighty God. Join us in this all-new, multi-part series on the true doctrines of Grace.
