We’re in a mini-series about the Book of Life and the biblical theology of salvation. And now Dr. Dan is dealing with important questions related to what happens to those who never hear the Gospel. This issue is of profound importance because it’s a major stumbling block to many non-believers…because they believe that it’s unfair that Christ is the only way to salvation. In this session, we'll...

In our series on the Book of Life and salvation theology, we’re now working through the “P” of Calvinism’s TULIP: Perseverance of the Saints.” But many will be surprised to learn that Perseverance is NOT the same as what most people consider to be the doctrine of Eternal Security. In this session, we’ll hear from many Reformed theologians that Eternal Security is grounded solely in being elected....

In our last session, we looked at the doctrine of Eternal Security and the many false teachings about this issue that are espoused in the church. In this session, Dr. Dan unpacks and corrects what he terms “Eternal IN-Security”…or the false doctrine of “Fragile Salvation Theology.” We’ll find how the Father relentlessly pursues His children when they stray…so that He can fulfill His amazing promis...

In this mini-series about the Book of Life and salvation theology…we’re dealing with the 5 points of the “TULIP” of Calvinism. And now we come to the “L”…Limited Atonement.

In this mini-series about the Book of Life and salvation theology…we’re dealing with the Doctrine of Predestination.

In Revelation 20, the Word reveals that…in the end…what ultimately matters is that a person’s name is in the Book of Life. In this series on the biblical theology of salvation, we’ll deal with the question, “Why, if God is absolutely sovereign and absolutely loving, EVERYONE isn’t saved?” The Calvinists’ response to this question is the idea that “God has TWO wills: One will of ‘desire’…and anothe...
