Excellent!
So glad you are back, Mike!
Great discussion, but where was the theology?
I am currently in a place of examining my worship, or lack thereof, of God. This episode and some reading I am doing helps me see what I am missing and will cry out to God to receive because I do want to worship Him rightly. Thank you. Love the podcasts.
you can't be Christian if you're democrat!!
31:29, amazing summary of this episode
That was pretty frustrating, with the Q&A segments
This was excellent. Such an important topic that we can't ignore!
👏
Great episode!
Any discussion on NT Wright?
Real Christian faith versus the New Atheism.
Great job, guys. You never disappoint.
so good, thank you.
so glad for the truth explained in this episode

I have been listening in to White Horse Inn since about '99. These guys always explain the gospel and the Christian faith in a clear and unambiguous way. Keep listening, they know what they're talking about...
Why would a loving God require something of us that we cant achieve? I'm also confused as to why cooperating with Gods grace would somehow take away from the sufficientcy of His finished work? Wouldn't part of God love and the ability for a true relationship with him require that I actually become holy and righteous and not just cloak with it?
I'm confused about how one is saved or justified by faith "alone"? I agree the Bible teaches we need faith to be justified but the only Scripture I can find where it talks about alone is James 2:24 where we are not justified by faith alone by also works. There are also many other passages that seem to indicate more than just faith is required. If faith alone is so foundational to reformed doctrine why isn't it clearly stated in the scriptures as such and why are there so many verses that would indicate directly contradictory to this?
Great listen! A great word just as my wife and I are praying about faithfully stepping out to church plant specifically among internationals.
