In this episode of the Old Roads Podcast, Dr. Aaron O’Kelley explains the meaning of the Reformation slogan sola gratia, “by grace alone.” We do not arrive at a true doctrine of salvation by grace alone unless we first understand the full extent of sin’s power over us and its effects on us. The Bible’s radical doctrine of sin corresponds to its radical doctrine of grace.

In this episode of the Old Roads Podcast, Dr. Aaron O’Kelley explores two doctrines in relation to sin: hereditary guilt and hereditary corruption. Does the Bible teach that we are born into the world already guilty? Does it teach that we are already predisposed to sin? If we don’t understand Adam’s sin rightly, we will miss important truths about Christ’s redemptive work for us.

In this episode of the Old Roads Podcast, Dr. Aaron O’Kelley raises the question of what makes us sinners: is it that we actually commit sins, or is it a condition we inherit that then leads us to sin? On the way to answering this question, he explores different views of sin from the history of the church. Understanding the nature of sin is essential to understanding who we are in Adam and what God, in his grace, must do to save us.

If Christ has been raised, what does that mean about the extraordinary claims he made for himself? How should we evaluate those claims? And what does the resurrection of Christ say to us in our own confrontation with death?

In this episode of the Old Roads Podcast, Dr. Aaron O'Kelley addresses the question of the rationality of believing in the resurrection of Jesus. If dead men don't (normally) rise, can a rational person honestly believe that on the first Easter Sunday, one man actually did? How do worldview considerations, historical evidence, and the witness of Scripture help us answer this question?
