    When Worlds Collide. In this episode, we sit with Luther scholar, Regan Prenter, to discuss the reality of the Holy Spirit’s work. How does the reality of the Spirit’s work conflict with our ideas about participation in God’s work? How does the law affect human decisions? What occurs when sinners attempt to internalize the Holy Spirit? What is the point of the sinner’s suffering and death? How does the therapeutic attempt to reverse engineer the Spirit’s salvific work? What happens when the extra nos of Jesus’ imputed righteousness differ from the intra nos of our own autobiographical righteousness? This and much, much more on today’s podcast.
