Sovereign Grace Family Church

One of the best sermons I’ve ever heard.

Thank you Keith for faithfully proclaiming God's truth! I pray those who hear this will do the 4 things you share as they examine whether they be in the faith.

As a former Reformed Baptist [20+ years] I am now a confessional Lutheran, and I still enjoy the Reformed preaching. Dr. Foskey's YouTube is funny and I never fail to watch and share his videos which I highly recommend. I was the Reformed type to call modern Lutheranism "Melanchthonism," believing the common misunderstanding that Lutherans follow Melanchthon, which we do not, and we also do not follow Luther. Confessional Lutherans believe, teach and confess the Book of Concord. It should be noted that Martin Luther was not a systematic theologian, and he often went overboard when taking his opponents to the mat and in so doing he overstated his case in Bondage of the Will. Look around at how Lutherans understand Bondage of the Will and it will place the work in context and it's not Calvinism. Inconsistent? Sure. But not Calvinism.

I'm excited to go back to the first of the series.

Interesting discussion, especially in regards to their interpretation of scripture. For more on this subject, I would recommend Baptism: Two views by Phillip Kayser.

I really enjoyed the topic and format of this episode. This was very informative with nice sprinklings of humor. I really appreciate this podcast.

Matthew is a great guest. He does a phenomenal job explaining the US Judicial system. He needs his own podcast where he reviews court cases. He will make a great Calvinist one day.

I did not stumble at any point. Thank you for putting the food in a dish for those kneeling in prayer asking for understanding. The scraps are fitting for the needy.

Excellent!

Love the introduction of the pastor & the closing. Great sermon, as usual. 🦋Rejoice❣

Thanks that was very helpful.

It is real love to warn and give the gospel, its hate, not tolerance to NOT to tell the gospel. Thankyou Pastor

THANK YOU Pastor Keith!! What a great series! This is helping me so much.

Good sermon. Thanks!

I agree with your message. At one time I was a member of the Churches of Christ, and also an Independent Christian Church. That was many years ago. Today there is another group that broke away from the Church of Christ, and that is the International Churches of Christ. They seem to have a "salvation by discipleship" belief and practice. That is, they still strongly hold that baptism is essential to salvation, at the moment of baptism you're saved. But FIRST you have to be a disciple of Jesus Christ when you are baptized...though lost until baptism. They base this on the reading of the Great Commission in Matthew. Maybe some have heard of this. Anyway, in the late 1980's the Boston COC was rebaptizing their members because of this new false doctrine. And that's when the mainline COC broke fellowship with them because "they changed the nature of baptism" to quote the mainline COC. And the Boston COC and related churches were retrained and eventually became the International COC. I know, sounds confusing. POINT IS they went beyond salvation by works which was bad enough. Instead, it's more like salvation by discipleship (yeah, still works but on steroids).
