Apologetics on SermonAudio

Equipping laypeople with a fundamental understanding of Bible translation is a critical task sitting at the intersection of apologetics, discipleship, and pastoral care. The average believer encounters Scripture exclusively through the lens of translation—a process involving deliberate scholarly choices regarding grammar, word selection, and cultural context.

AI Generated Summary: This historical theology study examines John Calvin's framework for religious epistemology as presented in the Institutes of the Christian Religion. The speaker outlines three primary sources through which humanity gains knowledge of God: self-reflection on human gifts, an innate sense of deity implanted in every conscience, and general revelation observed in creation. While these means provide a universal awareness of God's existence and power, they are insufficient for salvation due to the corrupting effects of sin on human reason. Consequently, special revelation through Scripture is necessary to correct misperceptions and reveal God as Redeemer. The sermon concludes that true knowledge of God requires the renewing work of the Holy Spirit and faith in Jesus Christ.

Gavin says "in this St. Kilien's Day sermon…we shall consider 1stly, the dating of Christ's public Ministry in the Oracle of the 70 Weeks of Daniel 9:24-27; & 2ndly, Christ's ministry to Gentiles e.g., in Zabulon & Nepthalim, Isaiah 9:1 & 2." And "from my Protestant Historicist School of Prophetic Interpretation understanding with an important qualification, we shall consider the amazing Biblical prophecy of the Oracle of the 70 Weeks in Daniel 9, which pinpoint dates the Public Ministry of the Messiah to 26 to 30 A.D. .The...qualification...is for the purposes of today's sermon the issue isolated is only the Christ's or Messiah's Public Ministry years from 26 to 30 A.D., but in fact, there is much, much, more prophetic doctrinal richness in this Oracle that we will not be considering today." "The holy prophet Amos saith in Amos 3:7, 'the Lord God…revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.' And God's prophet and pen-man of Holy Esaias records God saying in Isaiah 46:9 & 10, 'I am God, & there is none else, I am God, & there is none like me, declaring the end from the beginning, & from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, & I will do all my pleasure.' And Jesus of Nazareth who is the Christ or Messiah saith in St. John 13:19, 'Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may BELIEVE that I am he.' For prophecies are given, in part, that when God the Holy Ghost illuminates our minds as to their meaning, we understand their fulfilment, & we may thus have the Divine Inspiration of Holy Scripture confirmed to our hearts & minds. For Christ also saith in St. John 10:35, 'The Scripture cannot be broken'."
