Reformation Doctrine (36)
  1. What led Martin Luther to write The Bondage of the Will? This podcast explores the historical background and central message of one of Luther’s most significant works.
  2. In this episode, we begin our series commemorating the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s treatise, de Servo Arbitrio — The Bondage of the Will. We begin by reading Dr. Steven Paulson’s theological analysis of what’s at stake in Luther’s treatise, as well as its sharp-edged consequences for churches today. As it was received then, so it is now by dedicated students of this work: it cleaves those who seek Jesus plus philosophy, ideology, or personal interests from those who insist on Christ alone in all things relating to matters of salvation, faith, etc.
  3. Erasmus accused Luther of being outside of the church and having a novel understanding of Scripture.
  4. This episode of the Outlaw God podcast was recorded live at Here We Still Stand 2024.
  5. Dr. Paulson discusses how some theology distrusts the literal meaning of Scripture.
  6. Predestination Is Sick! In this episode, we discuss Steven Paulson’s book, The Outlaw God, focusing our conversation on double presentation, preaching God’s electing promise to sinners, and the consequences of worshipping a philosophical-material god. What are the consequences for people who don’t have a preacher of God’s promise? What does God’s promise have to say to those who believe all people will go to heaven when they die? What are the consequences for sinners when they try to know God apart from the promise?
  7. In this episode, Paulson helps listeners envision Luther's idea that the preacher is a "long-bowman" taking aim at the heart.
  8. In this episode, Paulson identifies Erasmus participating in a futile effort he calls sausage making.
  9. Dr. Paulson explores another violent metaphor from Luther, the arrow of conviction.
  10. Free-range Christ is fearful Christ because he is present, speaking, and I just crucified him.
  11. The culmination of our episodes on ontology and time is declaring that you are free to be.
