Passage: Romans 3:1-12
Series: Romans (2010)
Duration: 1 hr 4 mins 43 secs
"There is none righteous, no, not one." We have all heard of total depravity, but what does that really mean? Romans 3 is perhaps one of the most debated chapters in the Bible with regard to the beliefs associated with Calvinism. Many arguments come out of what Paul says about faith. In this lesson, we are introduced to how truth, faithfulness, and righteousness are connected, and how closely related faithfulness is to truth. The ten rhetorical questions Paul poses in the first ten verses of this chapter merit a lot of consideration and investigation.

Passage: Acts 13:13-39
Series: Acts (2010)
Duration: 1 hr 5 mins 26 secs
As we see Paul focus on the gospel with the Jews in Antioch in Pisidia, we should be aware of some modern evangelistic challenges seen through a comparison of Lordship Salvation and Free Grace. Those in Paul’s audience knew the scriptures, so it was effective for him to string together prophesies pointing to Christ. Review many of these Old Testament promises and see the familiar terms imputation, justification, forgiveness, propitiation, righteousness, and Christ the Servant. How does the resurrection seal the fulfillment of the Messianic prophesies? Do these Jews respond to Paul’s message?

Find out a number of scholars who have tried to prove that it means selection but they have no evidence. Learn the difference between foreknowledge and the will of God. See that God’s will and foreknowledge never overrides the free will of man.

Series: Ephesians (2018)
Duration: 51 mins 10 secs
Did you know everyone is born dead? If that doesn’t make any sense to you, listen to this lesson to learn the Bible teaches we are born spiritually dead, which means we are without a human spirit. How can we be made “alive in Christ”? See the role of the Holy Spirit in convicting us of unbelief. Find out we have to make the decision whether or not to believe in Christ and His work on the Cross. Understand what it means to walk by means of the Spirit and grow to spiritual maturity.

Passage: Philippians 1:27-4:23
Series: Philippians (2022)
Duration: 1 hr 10 mins 58 secs
Does God choose and regenerate those who will believe in Him? Listen to this lesson to learn about the false Calvinistic belief that because of man’s sin nature he is unable to make the decision to trust in Christ so must be chosen by God. Hear a number of principles that explain what faith means and that everyone has the option to believe that Christ died on the cross for them. See that after someone believes in Christ they are regenerated or born again. At the end of the lesson hear an engrossing missionary report from Tahiti on what is happening there by Mark Perkins.
