As we head into our break, we were grateful that Rev. David Inks had time to talk to us about the exegetical work that he has done in the book of Job and the sermons that have come out of that.  Listen in and be encouraged by the accomplishment of your faithful savior, Jesus Christ on your behalf.   Show Notes:   Give us a 5-star rating on iTunes!  (Click “View in iTunes” and “Ratings and Reviews”) Calvin’s Kline by David Inks Romans 2:13 Leviticus 18:5 Romans 10 Republication: A Biblical, Confessional & Historical Defense - Mark Collingridge & Brett McNeill Psalm 22 Sermon 1 – Love God and Use Things OR Use God and Love Things by David Inks(YouTube) Sermon 2 – Stripped to the Core by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 3 – Suffering and Glory in Job by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 4 – Your Worst Life Now by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 5 – Wrestling With Wisdom by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 6 – Wrestling from Silver to Gold by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 7 – Job, the Rock of Fire Tested Righteousness by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 8 – Job’s Covenant Contract Inked by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 9 – Searching and Waiting for Wisdom by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 10 – Elihu, the Forerunner by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 11 – The Forerunner Finishes: God’s Aseity and Sovereignty by David Inks (YouTube) Sermon 12 – The Saga of Job: The Search for Illusive Wisdom by David Inks (YouTube) David Inks’ Job Sermon Series on iTunes The Literary Structure of the Old Testament by David Dorsey The Book of Job by Norman Habel The Wycliffe Bible Commentary by Meredith Kline, ed. by Charles Pfeiffer & Everett Harrison Trial By Ordeal by Meredith G.

The elephant in the room is often the tension that exists between Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia (East) and Westminster Seminary California (West).  That tension centers around the relationship between two doctrines: union with Christ, and justification.  Listen in as Lee and Chris discuss this in a way that is intended to be fair to those with whom we disagree and magnifies Christ at the same time.  You’ll have to be the judge of whether we accomplished that or not.   Show Notes:   Give us a 5-star rating on iTunes!  (Click “View in iTunes” and “Ratings and Reviews”) Covenant, Justification, and Pastoral Ministry by R.

Lee has done a fair amount of reading about the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of theosis.  As we discussed our way through Images of the Spirit, it seemed like there were some point of similarity between what Kline was seeing in the Scriptures about the Glory-Spirit replicating his image in human beings in terms of physical luminosity, and the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of theosis.  We thought we would explore this idea in this episode.   Show Notes:   Give us a 5-star rating on iTunes!  (Click “View in iTunes” and “Ratings and Reviews”) Covenant and Salvation: Union with Christ by Michael Horton Orthodox Christianity Volume II: Doctrine and Teaching of the Orthodox Church by Hilarion Alfeyev 2 Peter 1:4 John 10:34 Psalm 82:6 2 Corinthians 3:18 Genesis 1 The Nicene Creed The Definition of Chalcedon The Synodikon of Orthodoxy Through Western Eyes: Eastern Orthodoxy: A Reformed Perspective by Robert Letham Romans 4:25 Romans 8:10 1 Corinthians 15:45

This episode covers the fourth and final chapter of Images of the Spirit.  Here Kline focuses on the significance of Genesis 3:8 and the day of judgment.  Even if listeners are already aware of how Kline understands this, it is a prime example of how Kline’s attention to both the context (forest) and the vocabulary and/or grammar (trees) provides fresh insight into the biblical text.   Show Notes:   Give us a 5-star rating on iTunes!  (Click “View in iTunes” and “Ratings and Reviews”) Genesis 3:8 Deuteronomy 4 Exodus 19 Hebrews 12:26 Ezekiel 1 2 Peter 3 Psalm 29 Numbers 22:22 Isaiah 11:1 Isaiah 28:5-6 Genesis 1 Isaiah 11:10 Psalm 104 Malachi 3:2 Malachi 4:1, 5 Amos 5:18 Joel 2 John 5:24 2 Corinthians 4:6 1 Corinthians 3:13 1 Corinthians 4:3 Revelation 1:10 Matthew 24:30 Daniel 7 Isaiah 59:19 2 Thessalonians 2:8   Connect with us on: Feedburner  Stitcher Libsyn iTunes Facebook Twitter
