Episode notes

For What It's Worth. In this episode, we conclude our reading of Gerhard Forde's "Captivation of the Will." We discuss the conclusion of Luther's treatise on the bound will, arriving at Christ and election, which reveals Erasmus's fundamental error — his argument for the human will is actually the original sin, choosing between good and evil.
