Walking Through Westminster - WCF 17, Of the Perseverance of the Saints

OPC minister Chris Drew joins us to walk through chapter 17 of the Westminster Confession of Faith, Of the Perseverance of the Saints. This is a tremendously encouraging chapter. Here is the text: 1. They, whom God hath accepted in his Beloved, effectually called, and sanctified by his Spirit, can neither totally nor finally fall away from the state of grace, but shall certainly persevere therein to the end, and be eternally saved. 2. This perseverance of the saints depends not upon their own free will, but upon the immutability of the decree of election, flowing from the free and unchangeable love of God the Father; upon the efficacy of the merit and intercession of Jesus Christ, the abiding of the Spirit, and of the seed of God within them, and the nature of the covenant of grace: from all which ariseth also the certainty and infallibility thereof. 3. Nevertheless, they may, through the temptations of Satan and of the world, the prevalency of corruption remaining in them, and the neglect of the means of their preservation, fall into grievous sins; and, for a time, continue therein: whereby they incur God’s displeasure, and grieve his Holy Spirit, come to be deprived of some measure of their graces and comforts, have their hearts hardened, and their consciences wounded; hurt and scandalize others, and bring temporal judgments upon themselves.   Watch: (with bonus post show) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MaVa9a5pA4A

Presidential Debate Watch-Along Show

Let's be honest—this is an odd show. We had a few friends (including Dr. D.G. Hart) to talk politics and 'Merica. There is some good content and discussion, but the show was about the debate and was for those watching it live. Give it a listen, there's some good content and some weird parts. Thanks to Ben Glaser, our friend, Mary, Josh Torrey, and Dr. Hart. Content warning: there was professional wrestling talk, too. Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNaALRjfpkw
