Born To Reign

Within the reformed tradition there has long been a debate about what status children have in the Church of God. Are our children second rate members? Are they simply external covenant members? Or are they regenerate members partaking of the benefits of Christ as they were sealed unto them in baptism? I’m his masterful treatise on the topic, titled “Presumptive Regeneration,” Cornelius Burgess, who was the chairman of the baptism committee at the Westminster assembly, ably proves that we are to regard children as regenerate members of the church. Burgess ably shows his agreement with Calvin and many other divines on this topic. He also spends a significant amount of time trying to prove that the regeneration of the infant ordinarily occurs at the time of baptism- which is also a topic of debate. Needless to say, you may need some ibuprofen after this episode.

Abortion is not just a political issue, it is a gospel issue. While it is not an easy topic to discuss, it is important not to separate this vital issue from the pages of scripture. The ancients sacrificed their children to the pagan god, Molech. To this day, children are being sacrificed in the name of many different false gods.

Who is qualified to give advice? Should we simply trust anyone who says they have a word from the Lord for us? This episode explores the nature of God's wisdom and when it is appropriate for a younger individual to speak into another person's life.  Thanks to Craftsman Home inspections for sponsoring this episode.

The cosmos. It's a big concept, it seems to have nothing to do with a three-bedroom ranch in suburban America. However, the household is actually a focal point in the battle of principalities and powers in this cosmic war. In this episode, we are discussing a book we both thoroughly enjoyed, "The Household and the War for the Cosmos" by C.R. Wiley.

On this, the first official episode, we’re talking family dynamics. How do we show respect and honor to our parents while holding true to our theological convictions?
