The Whole Counsel

Seeking the Lord (Devereux Jarratt)

John and Chuck have mentioned a few times the importance of the order of the sermons presented in Salvation in Full Color. This week bears the fruit of that importance as it is the first sermon describing the sinner's response to God's rights, our need of regeneration, and the hope of the work of the Spirit.
In Seeking the Lord, Devereux Jarratt explains that having a right grasp of God's sovereignty and power will lead to a seeking of Him. Beat against the doors of heaven, in faith, until God answers.

What is the effectual calling of the Lord to a rebellious soul? What makes it different than the normal conviction someone feels when listening to a sermon or reading Scripture? While the term may be unfamiliar in today's culture, its reality has been experienced by every true Christian.

Elders and Deacons, Part II

Chuck and Teddy conclude their discussion on the qualifications of elders and deacons in this week's episode. While there are specifics edicts, the principle behind each of them is that an elder and deacons must be a man "above reproach."

Regeneration (Jonathan Dickinson)

Richard Owen Roberts says regeneration is one of the most important doctrines American Evangelicalism must reexamine. That is a bold statement, but it bears much truth. This week's sermon by Jonathan Dickinson, "The Nature and Necessity of Regeneration" is a prime example of how much understanding we lack when it comes to this doctrine.
