In this episode, Dr. Beach continues to explore Book 3 of Calvin’s Institutes of the Christian Religion, focusing on a topic that’s often misunderstood: The relationship between faith and repentance. Many Christians wonder: Do we need to clean up our act before coming to God? Does our repentance earn us forgiveness? Calvin is helpful here. He provides insights for his time and ours that true repentance isn’t a prerequisite for faith but rather its fruit. Join Dr. Beach now as he unpacks Calvin’s thoughtful exposition on how the Holy Spirit bonds us to Christ, the nature of genuine repentance, and why this understanding is crucial for grasping the doctrine of justification by faith alone.
