Answering Questions
Does Ephesians 2:8-9 prove that faith a gift of God given to some people effectually and withheld from all others? Did John Calvin interpret that way? Is Calvinism all you talk about, Leighton? Do you affirm Augustine's view on Original Sin? Do you believe that lost men are in bondage to sin prior to being regenerated? If you agree with a Catholic regarding one of his interpretations does that mean you agree with Catholics regarding every interpretation? Are you willing to debate James White on John 6 under his limited stipulations (no notes, Greek text only, no cross referencing other related texts etc)? Did you debate Romans 9 in your last debate with James White? Do you have to use glasses to read your bible? Do you ever do exegesis or do you just use analogies? Are you as impressed by James' ability to read Greek as everyone else is? Dr. Leighton Flowers, Director of Evangelism and Apologetics for Texas Baptists, will address all these questions, and many more, in today's broadcast!

Ephesians 1:11 De-Calvinized
Dr. Flowers plays a recent teaching released by Dr. John Piper on Ephesians 1:11-14 in order to demonstrate the error of the Calvinistic interpretation. Eph. 1:11 is one of the most used proof texts to support the Calvinistic doctrine of theistic determinism, the concept that God has sovereignly and unchangeably decreed whatsoever comes to pass, including every sinful inclination and action.

Calvinism Defeated by Seth Dillon of The Babylon Bee
Seth Dillon, the CEO of The Babylon Bee, joins Leighton in a broadcast to congratulate Seth on his victory over Calvinism once and for all! Since the 5th century when St. Augustine, a former Manichean convert from Africa, introduced theistic determinism into the church, many Christian theologians have attempted to eradicate these gnostic sounding doctrines altogether. All have failed--until now! What Flowers and many other theologians and pastors have attempted to do for 1500 years was accomplished this week in about 15 minutes on Twitter by Seth Dillon of the Babylon Bee. Reports say that John's Piper and MacArthur, along with all Christian theologians named John, will be appearing in a live news briefing later today in Geneva Switzerland to announce their recantation of all things Calvinistic, while symbolically snipping the stem of a tulip with a large pair of scissors.

N.T. Wright on Romans 9
Dr. Flowers plays a clip from NT Wright (https://youtu.be/6osLhKM4XKw) talking about Romans 9 teaching on God's sovereign election of Israel to serve His purpose in bringing redemption for the world by which anyone can be saved by grace through faith, rather than the common misconception of some theologians who take this chapter to teach that God literally hates and rejects most of humanity before they are born and only sovereignly elects to save a select few by a unilateral and effectual work of grace (i.e. Calvinism). Dr. Flowers also engages with a sermon posted by Dr. James White which was preached by Derek Melton on Romans 9 titled "Unconditional Election" (https://www.sermonaudio.com/solo/grac...)

Tim Keller on Election
Dr. Flowers walks through a recent sermon by Tim Keller where he explains why the Calvinistic doctrine of election is humbling and that it creates less problems than the belief that men's have real freedom in regard to their choice to follow or reject Christ.
