The Baptist Broadcast

Join me as I walk through the Chalcedonian Definition along with our own Confession, the 2LCF. Striking similarities remind us of rich orthodox truths.Grace Reformed Baptist Church, Antelope Valley: grbcav.orgthebaptistbroadcast.org

The Transfiguration of our Lord, Peter's response, and the true temple of God.

What makes a church a true gospel church?

Does the gospel have the power to move beyond an ethnically Jewish nation? Christ shows the scope of redemption as He interacts with the "woman of Canaan" in Matthew 15:21-28.

Join me as I dive deeper into Matthew 15:1-20.

It's back! Join me for an update on The Baptist Broadcast, a discussion on weak faith in light of God's saving grace, and the "tradition of men."

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is growing in its cultural significance. As we move into an age more and more influenced by AI, it is important to think about the big questions. Can AI produce art?

This is something we think little about. But Scripture obligates us to be diligent in this area, and the statistics give cause for concern. This is a helpful example of a church working to facilitate training of future pastors: https://x.com/JeffreyPWiesner/status/...

In this video on the Baptist Landmark movement of the 19th century, I will focus on its origins, and two of its central claims.

Why Do We Call God Father? Son? Holy Spirit? This is a brief survey of the eternal processions in God as it is found in Scripture, in Christian history, and in clearer dogmatic statements such as what is found in 2LCF 2.3.

Should Christians attend marriage ceremonies that countenance unbiblical unions? The short answer is, "No." But watch this episode to find out why.

How were our 17th century Baptist forerunners arguing for believer's baptism? From Shadow to Substance by Dr. Sam Renihan: https://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Substance-Theology-Particular-1642-1704/dp/1907600310/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1PQIV6CAZ84I7&keywords=from+shadow+to+substance&qid=1706046775&sprefix=from+sha%2Caps%2C1452&sr=8-1 Unity and Continuity... by Andrew Woolsey: https://www.amazon.com/Unity-Continuity-Covenantal-Thought-Westminster/dp/1601782160/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2JF7Y5R2QHFKR&keywords=unity+and+continuity&qid=1706046831&sprefix=un%2Caps%2C950&sr=8-1

How are we to understand the relationship between the Old and New Testaments given progressive revelation?

Was Noah's flood global? Short answer? Yes! This video is intended to interact with Gavin Ortlund's recent podcast arguing for a local flood.

Every Christian has wrestled with this question at one time or another. Are you under a divine microscope? Is it possible for God to change from loving you to not loving you?

How should both law and gospel inform our understanding of sanctification? How does the gospel relate to the good works flowing our of God's work of sanctification in the lives of Christians?

How should we understand the incarnation and how it relates to our reading of Christological passages in Scripture?

I finish up the series by looking at some of the language of the JFVS regarding baptism, its law/gospel distinction, and lastly its doctrine of justification.

Attributes, Trinity, and help from an old friend from the 4th century.

Looking at the Joint Federal Vision Statement on the church and the covenant of life.

What does the Joint Federal Vision Statement state concerning God the Trinity? BOOK MENTION: Trinity & Creation by Dr. Richard Barcellos — https://www.amazon.com/Trinity-Creation-Scriptural-Confessional-Account/dp/1725280345/ref=sr_1_1?crid=28WCJUFYCTFPF&keywords=Trinity+%26+Creation&qid=1701228953&sprefix=trinity+%26+creation%2Caps%2C114&sr=8-1

What does it mean to "be a man"? It seems the answers to this question are manifold today. In this episode, I hope to bring some clarity by ordering our thinking properly.

What do law & gospel have to do with our justification before God? This is one of the most important questions both Christians and non-Christians can ask.

Christian liberty is a gospel issue. But why? Join me as I consider this wonderful doctrine.

Some do not believe Baptists should apply the term "Reformed" to themselves. Others differ. I will try to shed some light on the issue.

From abuse to neglect, the doctrine of the universal church has been the subject of much controversy over the centuries. But, when rightly understood, it becomes an important doctrinal and practical consideration for Christ's people.

It's exciting to talk politics, speculate on Bible prophecy, and fantasize about the rapture. But do we ever think about God's churches?

What's the relationship of Kenotic Christology to open theism and/or process theism? In this episode, I will define each of these terms and discuss the connections.

The Beatific Vision seems antiquated today. Much less does it appear to belong in Baptist theology. Join me as I briefly explore what the beatific vision is, and also where we can find it among the Baptists.

This second and final part on Mormonism seeks to bring Christian orthodoxy into a confrontation with the Mormon distinctives discussed in the first part.

What is the only ground of our communion, comfort, and dependence upon God? Join me as I discuss 2LCF 2.1-3!

Is the King James Only position a sound position? Let's look at some of the evidence.

This first part on Mormonism surveys history, ecclesiology, and doctrinal distinctives of the Mormon organization. The second part will be the Christian response, looking at Scripture & historical Christian theology.

A course on how to apply Christian orthodoxy in our response and outreach to the cults.

Some are under the impression Mormonism is a Christian organization. This is not true. Join me to find out why!

There is an identifiable Christian orthodoxy the church has always believed. Those who would reject it or twist it do so to their own exclusion from Christianity.

Smaller Baptist churches across the country are struggling to keep their doors open. Why?

Join Peter and I as we discuss the doctrines of grace, primary & secondary causality, and human responsibility. Check out Peter's related book here: https://www.amazon.com/Reprobation-Gods-Sovereignty-Redeeming-Biblical/dp/0825447437/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3C5HA4586FRN1&keywords=peter+sammons&qid=1691460771&sprefix=%2Caps%2C290&sr=8-1

Another interview on the Broadcast. This time, on biblicisms! Leading up to our August 9th - 10th Conference, "Confessing the Faith".

Where have Christians agreed on baptism? Where have they disagreed? After I flesh out the Baptist position, I'd like to trace lines of both continuity & discontinuity on baptism in general throughout the years.

What is epistemology? How should we think about it? How should we NOT think about it? Presuppositionalism, classicalism, realism, critical theory—join me as I talk about it all in this episode.

The active life serves the contemplative life according to our Lord in Luke 10:38-42. Let's hear the ancient John Cassian on our Lord's words to Martha & Mary.

Does Postmillennial Theonomy mix law/gospel, or the covenant of works with the covenant of grace?

Join Dr. Renihan and I as we discuss the Particular Baptist response to the 17th c. heretic, Thomas Collier, through the means of a young but gifted Nehemiah Coxe.

Should Christians flee "blue states" in order to fight blue states? What about local churches in those states?

Moral, Intellectual, Cardinal, and Theological Virtues. What are they? Join me as I jump into this HUGE philosophy and Christian theology area. Augustine, De Libero Arbitrio (On the Free Choice of the Will): https://spot.colorado.edu/~pasnau/4020/augustine.pdf

Benjamin Keach & Thomas DeLaune in their notable work 'Tropologia', use several German Lutheran Reformers to support various Scriptural observations.

Last week, we introduced worship. This week, we begin looking at the details--beginning in the Old Testament; its circumstance, confinement, complexity, and anticipation.

Curiosity is a sin. But before you click out of this video, Thomas can explain...
