In the second half of verse 2 of our text, John says that Jesus is the propitiation, “not for our [sins] only, but also for those of the whole world.” This little phrase has sparked a lot of theological controversy. Those who oppose the Reformed (Calvinist) view of salvation say that this verse refutes the doctrine of “limited atonement” - that Christ died only for the elect. However, Calvinists r...

Hamas is levying heinous attacks on civilians in Israel. This is unquestionably immoral. But how should Christians, particularly Christians in America, respond to these recent events? And how should Christians view Israel overall?

Bitterness is an infectious sin that can easily defile many. So what is the cause of bitterness, and how can it be uprooted?

The Church in American has lost its edge. There are very clear and simple reasons that explain how this happened.

In this episode of Theology Applied, Eric Conn joins the show to discuss the significant challenges that Gen X and Millennials face when seeking to obey the 5th Commandment, especially in light of all the ways Boomers have destroyed America for future generations.

What does it actually mean to be “worldly”? While we’re on this topic, let’s talk a little about “manliness” as well.

This week, lay-elder Pastor Connor Hensley preached on Persistent Prayer in Luke 18:1-8.

Be Warned! Your view of salvation will radically affect how you parent your children. 

Jesus didn’t come into the world to condemn innocent people. Neither did he come merely to provide a better option for neutral people. Christ came into the world to save sinners. Light in the darkness. Life to dead men walking. 

There is no such thing as a Christian who, in the truest and most objective sense, has been “forgiven little.”

In this episode of Theology Applied, Brian Suave and Ben Garrett (@HauntedCosmos_) join the show to discuss the biblical origins of giants, the classifications and various sizes of giants, and where remaining giants might be living/hiding still to this day.

The Christian who is growing in spiritual maturity is grieved far more over their sin today, than they were when they were younger in the Faith.

Is the doctrine of Total Depravity an accurate description of someone who has been born again?

Debunking the myth of “prevenient grace.” If you live in the Austin area, Pastor Joel just started planting a brand new church called Covenant Bible Church in Georgetown, Texas. He would love for you to come visit on a Sunday. Check out the church’s website for details: covenantbible.org

We don’t grow in sinfulness as we follow Christ, but we do become far more acutely aware of the sin which still remains.

Those who are in Christ are most certainly SAINTS, but they are also still SINNERS.

Hell is not cruel. Hell is just. Here’s why…

In this episode of Theology Applied, Crosspolitic joins the show to discuss R. R. Reno’s book “Return of the Strong Gods.” Secularism was always just a placeholder. It’s merely the political/cultural pantheon for all of the “weak gods” (principled pluralism, globalism, egalitarianism, feminism, etc). But the “strong gods” are returning. It’s not whether, but which. It will either be Christian Nati...

The purposes and products of properly confessing our sins to God.

This isn’t your youth group’s short-term mission trip. It won’t be accomplished in weeks, months, or even years. This will require decades, and likely generations. The goal is simple. Take the whole town for King Jesus. Join us.

If you’re a pretty good person, the gospel is not for you. If you’re merely a victim of other people’s sin, the gospel is not for you. Christ died for SINNERS.

God sent revival to Nineveh, yet the Prophet Jonah was bitter. Similarly, if God chose to start saving a bunch of hillbillies in flyover country, Russell Moore and David French would probably be among the first to complain.

The solution to hard men who wreak havoc is not soft men. The answer is hard men who are also good men.

John MacArthur and Voddie Baucham are theologically united on many things, but there are a few important theological distinctions between these two men.
