Dr. Paulson concludes the lessons on the Lord's Prayer. Here, we are given an Amen to God's gifts of body and soul. This amen is our great encouragement that God's gifts are not probabilities but certain promises he gracefully delivers to us.  Show Notes:   Support 1517   1517 Podcasts   1517 on Youtube    1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts   1517 Academy - Free Theological Education   What’s New from 1517:   30 Minutes in the NT on Youtube   Remembering Rod Rosenbladt    Preorder: Encouragement for Motherhood Edited by Katie Koplin    Available Now: Be Thou My Song by Kerri Tom    Last Chance: NWA Conference May 3rd-4th   More from the hosts:   Caleb Keith   Steven Pauslon

Dr. Paulson begins an important conversation about distinguishing law and gospel. This distinction is central to Luther's refutation of free will. With the distinction that the letter or law kills, Scripture ends the idea that the law is given to empower free will to choose God. Likewise, the distinction that the spirit or gospel gives life emphasizes that Christ's work is total and complete and does not wait for sinners to choose life over death.  Show Notes:   Support 1517 Podcast Network Fundraiser!   1517 Podcasts   1517 on Youtube    1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts   1517 Academy - Free Theological Education   What’s New from 1517:    Available Now: Encouragement for Motherhood Edited by Katie Koplin    Pre-order: Hitchhiking with Prophets: A Ride Through the Salvation Story of the Old Testament by Chad Bird   30 Minutes in the NT on Youtube   Remembering Rod Rosenbladt    Available Now: Be Thou My Song by Kerri Tom   More from the hosts:   Caleb Keith   Steven Pauslon  

Preaching Letter and Spirit

In this episode, Paulson discusses modern issues with the theology of the cross. A progressive form of theology attempts to attract human will by describing Christ's suffering on the cross as similar to ours. However, the suffering of the cross is not about attraction or the value of your suffering but the end of sin and the law.  Show Notes:   Support 1517   1517 Podcasts   1517 on Youtube    1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts   1517 Academy - Free Theological Education   What’s New from 1517:    Available Now: Encouragement for Motherhood Edited by Katie Koplin    Pre-order: Hitchhiking with Prophets: A Ride Through the Salvation Story of the Old Testament by Chad Bird   30 Minutes in the NT on Youtube   Remembering Rod Rosenbladt    Available Now: Be Thou My Song by Kerri Tom   More from the hosts:   Caleb Keith   Steven Pauslon    

The Attraction of Suffering

Dr. Paulson is back to give commentary on his Luther's Outlaw God series of books. This time, he and Caleb Keith introduce volume two. The title of this introduction is "Christ the Hated God." This introduction picks up on the themes of desire and the human will from volume one and puts a pointed focus on the cross of Christ. The primary emphasis is that the cross does not make Christ attractive to human desires but is a "folly and stumbling block."

Christ the Hated God

God accomplishes great things through the Lord's Supper. Here, our Lord delivers the forgiveness of sins not as a generic doctrinal statement but through a physical means delivered particularly to you. The Supper is accomplished not by works but, as Luther states, "for the words “For you” require nothing but believing hearts."

Receiving the Body and Blood of Christ

Caleb and Dr. Paulson continue their read through Luther's Small Catechism. This time, Dr. Paulson teaches about the institution of the Lord's Supper. In the Supper, Christ joins his Word to physical elements to give us the gift of life and forgiveness. The show focuses on the power of the sacraments and how this gift is not a mere ritual.  Show Notes:   Support 1517   1517 Podcasts   1517 on Youtube    1517 Podcast Network on Apple Podcasts   1517 Academy - Free Theological Education   What’s New from 1517:    Available Now: Encouragement for Motherhood Edited by Katie Koplin   30 Minutes in the NT on Youtube   Remembering Rod Rosenbladt    Available Now: Be Thou My Song by Kerri Tom   More from the hosts:   Caleb Keith   Steven Pauslon
