Episode 20-Total Depravity
from A Word About God · host Nate Petersen
IT'S EPISODE 20!!! Total Depravity definitely sounds like some grindcore/death-metal band. Maybe it is...what we know for sure though, is that it is a Biblical principle, and the "T" in the TULIP acrostic that represents the Five Points of Calvinism, or the Doctrines of Grace. Nate takes us through this doctrine this week, and points out that if you agree that you are powerless in yourself to save yourself from sin, then you might be a bit more Calvinist than you think. Nate also goes through some of his most recent reads, and throws out quick reviews of "The Holiness of God" by RC Sproul, "In the Year of Our Lord" by Sinclair Ferguson, and "The Lost World of the Torah" by Walton and Walton.
