Just And Sinner Podcast

I was joined by Dr. Joel Biermann, Associate Professor of Systematic Theology at Concordia Theological Seminary in St. Louis. We discussed the controversy surrounding "two kinds of righteousness" and its place in Lutheran theology.

I discussed the extent of the atonement in the history of the church, from the Patristic period, to the middle ages, and into the Reformation.

I gave an overview of the movement known as "the New Perspective on Paul."

I responded to recent claims from JD Hall with Pastor Daniel Price.

I was joined by Fr. David Graves to discuss the life and work of St. Francis of Assisi

I was joined by Pastor Daniel Price on today's program to discuss the charismatic movement.

I interviewed charismatic leader Michael Brown to discuss the beliefs of charismatics. I asked him about his opinions on various charismatic practices and we talked about areas of disagreement between us. 

On today's program I continued the discussion on dispensationalism with a Biblical refutation of the rapture and premillenialism.

On today's program, I discussed the Mark Driscoll fiasco and the underlying issues of celbrity culture within evangelicalism. I addressed the recent controversies surrounding both Mark Driscoll and Ergun Caner, and how they reflect a dangerous ecclesiology inherent in contemporary evangelicalism. 

I continued the discussion of antinomianism that was started last week. I addressed antinomian tendencies within certain parts of Lutheranism, and explained how to have a balanced and Biblical approach to this issue.

I discussed antinomianism in reference to Reformed theologian Mark Jones' book on the subject.

On today's program, I continued my response to Karlo Broussard on purgatory. I dealt with his arguments from Scripture. The two texts addressed are from 1 Corintians 3, and Matthew 5. It was demonstrated that these two texts do not say anything about purgatory.

On today's program I discussed purgatory. I reviewed a lecture by Roman Catholic apologist Karlo Broussard, and expressed the flaws in his teaching. 

On today's program I discussed the history of dispensationalism, and then gave an argument demonstrating that this position is unbiblical. 

On today's program, I interacted with a lecture by Roman Catholic apologist Steve Ray in which he argued against the doctrine of justification by faith alone. I demonstrated that this idea is clearly taught in Romans, and also discussed James 2.

Chris Rosebrough joined me to share some of his thoughts on the recent strage fire conference.

I discussed a number of topics on today's program. I spent the first half hour talking about the Reformed covenantal argument for infant baptism, and how we should approach this subject. I then answered a listener question about people who are called "righteous," and "blameless" in the Old Covenant. Finally, I addressed the Church of Christ's view of baptism.

A discussion of the doctrine of the imputation of Christ's active obedience. 

I discussed a ten minute segment of a Paul Washer sermon which demonstrates his preparationist approach to conversion.

Today's program was an ecclectic one. I answered listener questions on a variety of topics. First I addressed the issue of divine monergism in Luther's Bondage of the Will. I then spent the majority of the time discussing the Mosaic Law and in what sense it is still valid for the church today. Finally, I addressed the issue of legalism in the church fathers.
