Bondage of the Will (92)
  1. Free Will is a Fiction
  2. Little Willy Plays in Duty. In this episode, we read Steven Paulson’s Outlaw God, discussing the appeal of the Law (in the abstract), why old Adam loves pretending he has free will, the Ninevite Conundrum, Jonah’s wormy preacher, and our obsession with placing therapy alongside Christ as a means of grace.
  3. What is the right sacrifice before God? Dr. Paulson continues to examine Cain and Able in an effort to refute the notion that the difference between the two was a result of the correct use of free will.
  4. Decisionalism expects you to raise yourself through a choice, but Scripture says only Christ raises the dead.
  5. Dr. Paulson discusses the difference between free will and dominion over creation.
  6. Just Answer the Question. In this episode, we answer listener questions, specifically active and passive choices, active and passive righteousness, election and the bondage of the will, addiction, the limits of Alcoholics Anonymous, and the ultimate Good we all seek, and much, much more.
  7. In Christ, you are bound. Bound to mercy. Bound to grace. Bound to a God who won’t let you go. And because of that, you are free—gloriously, joyfully free.
  8. Dr. Paulson continues to characterize the dialogue between Luther and Erasmus.
  9. Is the Gospel just a feeling of relief?
  10. God's word is not just a guide, making you desire to leave the cave and enter the world of real things.
  11. Dr. Paulson discusses Plato's analogy of the Cave. He emphasizes how Erasmus used this analogy to confuse God's words of law and gospel.
  12. Jesus satisfies, fills, and saves because he is the Son of God, who, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, lives and reigns forever.
