How Does God Change a Heart of Stone? | April 27 Welcome to Strength for Today with Pastor John Blevins from Christ Church Presbyterian in Knoxville Tennessee. In today's episode, we explore Ezekiel 36:26-27 and the incredible promise that God gives His people a new heart and a new spirit. We also study Westminster Confession of Faith Chapter 10.1 to understand how God effectually calls His people by His Word and Spirit, changing hearts of stone into hearts of flesh. Discover how salvation is not mere moral improvement but a supernatural transformation by God's grace. Learn how effectual calling enlightens our minds, renews our wills, and draws us freely to Jesus Christ. If you have ever wondered how true spiritual change happens, this episode will ground you in biblical truth and encourage you with the power of God's sovereign grace.
