Salvation (848)
  1. In this episode, Caleb and Dr. Paulson discuss salvation ex nihilo or "from nothing."
  2. Jesus takes that which is overlooked and unappreciated and celebrates this child as the place where God is at work.
  3. The beauty of our gospel reading today is how it reveals Jesus as the One who comes not only for the strong in faith but also for those who are weak and walking away.
  4. Jesus does not remain at a distance from our suffering. He fully enters it and bears its burden.
  5. Calvary is our mountain of pardon. It is the place which reveals most definitively God’s plan to redeem and reconcile sinners to himself.
  6. Our enemy is both external AND internal. Outside of us AND inside of us. It is the old evil foe who prowls around us AND the old Adam who wreaks havoc inside each of us.
  7. The grace of God does not save us at the beginning only in order to keep ourselves in his good graces by our good enough readiness.
  8. No longer do we read about Jesus promising to satisfy and raise and abide in His people. Instead, we encounter a Jesus who goes on the attack.
  9. In this episode we talk about who does what in repentance. It can be easy to put ourselves in the driver's seat of someone else's repentance.
  10. Baptism is always valid because no unrighteousness or faithlessness on our part could ify God’s faithfulness.
  11. Jesus, the Son of God from all eternity, the agent of creation, the Savior of all people, promises to abide IN His people.
  12. Is repentance really just an afterthought or a one-time event? Or is it the way of the Christian life in which God turns us away from ourselves and towards His Son.
