Salvation (870)
  1. As I write this, I wonder if perhaps I am stretching things a bit thinking that it would be relevant to a considerably more sophisticated audience. Perhaps we already know the Gospel, that we are all sinners.
  2. I visited a senior man at his home the other day. I'll refer to him as “Jim.”
  3. I am not a good Lutheran. I have only been around reformation theology for a few years.
  4. He begins with Jesus and ends with Jesus. He is not going to try to complete what Jesus starts.
  5. God’s grace is extended to the incorrigible alcoholic as well as to us, the more sophisticated sinners and drunks.
  6. The Christian sees himself or herself as one just as guilty as the rest of the world. But we see ourselves not just as what’s wrong with the world, but in the One by whom the world has been redeemed.
  7. Jesus cuts right to the chase when it comes to the evil one. He calls the devil “a liar and the father of lies,”
  8. Then, Jesus our Groom, with His nail-scarred hands takes our hands and walks out with us from that ultimate courtroom, and into eternity – His eternity – and a never-ending wedding feast.
  9. Your Theology Is Creating A Nice Little Climate of Panic! In this episode, Gillespie and Riley continue their reading of Gerhard Forde’s “On Being a Theologian of The Cross.” This week, they discuss the two ways of being a theologian and the consequences for daily life.
  10. Hurricane Florence, or any natural disaster, can serve as a painful reminder of our own mortality, the futility of human ingenuity and strength.
  11. You'd think that killing people would make them like you? This week, in preparation for the HWSS Conference, Gillespie and Riley jump into On Being a Theologian of the Cross, by Gerhard Forde. Why did Luther say, "The cross alone is our theology" and what are the consequences for Christians in every generation?
  12. This is the best part of our great story! Cindy and her children focus on God’s First Promises both in Genesis 3:15 and 3:20-21. Here we all learn about a Savior that is coming, and has already come, to renew and forgive God’s people.
