Theology You Should Know

A Perfect Worshipper saved us so that we can worship God in spirit and truth.

Man in his fallen condition seeks to worship himself in many different ways rather than worship his Creator.

Because we are dead in our sins and trespasses, God effectually calls us unto salvation by regenerating us and transforming us into new creatures in Christ.

God sent His Son Jesus Christ to completely atone for the sins of His people, so that they are saved to worship Him forever and ever. This post covers the Second Head of the Canons of Dort.

Election is God choosing a people for His own possession, to whom He gives faith to trust in Christ so that they may enjoy eternal fellowship with Him forever.

This is an introduction to a five-part series on the Doctrines of Grace as they are expounded in the Canons of Dort, describing the nature of how God saves His people.

We commemorate Reformation Day on October 31, for on this day in 1517, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses outlining corruption in the Church to the door of the Wittenberg Church, sparking the Protestant Reformation. The Reformation recovered and clarified the great doctrines of grace and purified the Church from error.

The problem of evil is difficult to face, but God has permitted it for His glory. Because He is perfect, holy, and righteous, God has a good reason to allow evil - and this is shown most poignantly in His redemptive work in history.

God rules over this world, even though there is incredible suffering, confusion, and evil in it. His plan is to glorify Himself, and He perfectly accomplishes this as He governs both this world and His Church.

General revelation is what God reveals about Himself through nature and through the human conscience. It shows us much about the power and wisdom of God, but is ultimately insufficient to place humans in relationship with Him or save them from their sins.
