By placing the story of the lost sheep immediately before verse 15, Matthew shows us that one of the ways that Jesus “goes and gets the lost sheep” is through the church – by sending his people who are not presently straying to go and get those who are presently straying to bring them back into the fold.

In this episode, we continue examining the WLC Q7 by studying two aspects of God's infinity: Blessedness and Perfection (1 Timothy 6:15; Romans 9:5; Nehemiah 9:5).

Because of sin, this first worship service, though instructive for us, is a worship service none of us would want to have been a part of. It’s a worship service gone wrong.

In this episode, we present the idea of God's proprietary rights over all that he has made (Genesis 1:1; Exodus 20:8-11; Deuteronomy 5:12-15; Psalm 130:8; Galatians 4:5; Psalm 24:1; Psalm 50:12; Psalm 89:11).

Considering the biblical teaching regarding the divinity of Christ. One place to look would be to the teaching of Paul found in Philippians 2. In verse 6 Paul plainly traces Christ’s life from eternity past, when he was in the form of God and equal to God, saying, “though [Jesus] was in the form of God, [he] did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped.”

In this episode, we continue examining the WLC Q7 by studying two aspects of God's infinity: Being and Glory (Exodus 3:14; Acts 7:2; John 11:4).

It should be said, however, that in almost every point of argument from the egalitarian side I would have some degree of agreement.

If it appeals to your logic that when an inventor creates something then he or she gets proprietary rights over his creation, how much more sense does it make that we should recognize the Preeminent Creator as the Owner over “The world, and all those who dwell in it” (Psalm 24:1)?

In this episode, we revisit the WLC Q7 which asks, "What is God?" Then, we provide some biblical basis for Louis Berkhof's claim that God is infinite, or free from all limitations (Job 11:1-9; 38:4-5).

Atheism is the worldview of fools. It touts itself as intellectual and scientific but is nothing more than a philosophy masquerading as neutral and objective.

If the reader wishes to apply the hope-filled doctrine of this threefold series on 1 Corinthians 10:13, then go out and obey 1 Corinthians 10:14 with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In this episode, we continue to pursue the knowledge of our great God by examining John 4:24 and Jesus’ declaration, “God is Spirit.”

There are deep desires and motives of the heart that drive sexual sin and that’s the ground that we need to come to. We need to fall on our face before God and 1) recognize it, and 2) repent of it.

The final declaration of praise in the beloved Doxology extends from God the Father to include God the Son and God the Holy Spirit in this “all of creation” adoration.

In this episode, we preview our Summer series by comparing the beginning of Calvin's Institutes with the beginning of Augustine's Confessions. Then, we end our time together in the Westminster Larger Catechism.

Our works, which may be called good, are only such as God has commanded in his word, and not those which are devised by men out of blind zeal, or upon any pretense of good intention (WCF 16.1).

In preparation for this month’s podcast, where we will discuss Theology Proper and Anthropology utilizing Calvin’s Institutes, this brief survey of these two themes within the Pentateuch displays the biblical basis for God’s holiness and Man’s root problem: sin.

In this episode, we connect the doctrine of Unconditional Election with Covenant Theology.

The penultimate line of the Doxology couples nicely with the preceding line to expand the worship of God from the earth below into the heavens above.
