Today on the Big Deal Podcast, we're talking about Reformed Church Polity. Who is responsible in the church? Can women be pastors? What is the difference between an elder and a deacon? All of this and more this week on the Big Deal!
![Ep. 6 - Is it possible to lose salvation? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/26/d2/18/aa76a28702a2571b30bdeb02b3f2d9c208_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 6 - Is it possible to lose salvation? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
Today we're we're talking about assurance of salvation. Is our salvation fragile or assured? What about the unpardonable sin in Matthew 12 or the warning passages of Hebrews? In reformed theology, this is called the doctrine of the Perseverance of the Saints. Hope you guys enjoy!
![Ep. 5 - Irresistible Grace [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/7a/9a/8d/1fde06e5c2c609150b7768f39d7213257d_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 5 - Irresistible Grace [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
Irresistible Grace is deeply tied to the rest of the points in TULIP calvinism. Today on the podcast we're discussing free will, God's sovereignty, and how the two mysteriously work together.
![Ep. 4 - Who did Jesus die for? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/bb/41/71/70c813970c9aee3350b3ad43d34374d2ac_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 4 - Who did Jesus die for? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
Today on the podcast we're discussing the most contested of the 5 points of modern Calvinism - Limited Atonement. The doctrine of Limited Atonement holds that Jesus did not die for the sins of the world. He only died for the elect of God, those chosen before the foundation of the Earth to be his children. If you're familiar with your Bible, you will realize that there might be some problems with that! Find out more on the pod!
![Ep. 3 - Why did God choose to save some people and not others? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/67/54/7e/baa04504bdc009e903cca125539930a30d_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 3 - Why did God choose to save some people and not others? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
Today we're talking about Unconditional Election. God chooses the people whom he saves. Why? Why those people and not others? What does this doctrine mean about his feelings towards the rest of mankind? These are really big questions and we're not shying away from them on today's episode of the Big Deal Podcast.
![Ep. 2 - Are all humans evil? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/2c/97/8c/0b7b7cc67a491b8266c5cce3836aaaf849_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 2 - Are all humans evil? [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
Today on the pod, we're examining the first point of the famous Calvinism TULIP acronym: Total depravity. What does it mean that humans are totally depraved? Aren't we all capable of good? What about babies and the intellectually disabled?
![Ep. 1 - What Exactly is Calvinism?! [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]](https://s3.castbox.fm/ba/67/fd/37b1eee6b8d9cd4ad59f06237bdc318248_scaled_v1_400.jpg "Ep. 1 - What Exactly is Calvinism?! [CALVINISM & REFORMED THEOLOGY SERIES]")
We're kicking off season 3 of the Big Deal Podcast! This season is going to dig deep into Calvinism, its estranged brother, Arminianism, and how we all got where we are from the Protestant Reformation. Today, we're doing a big overview on what Calvinism is.
This is the final episode in our Eternity Series and covers the last 2 chapters of Revelation!
We finally get to one of the most hotly debated issues in Revelation...the Millennium. It's one of the more difficult passages to interpret in the Bible for good reason. We're looking at the three main views, Premillennialism, Amillennialism, and Postmillennialism. There are reasons people subscribe to each interpretation. We're going to examine each one and see their strengths and weaknesses.
Things are heating up as we near the end of Revelation! Ch17-19 features a cataclysmic war between Christ and the beast, the Marriage Feast of the Lamb, and the Fall of Babylon. (Forgive the cheesy thumbnail! Couldn't help it haha)
When did Satan fall from heaven? What is the mark of the beast?! This is a fascinating set of chapters in Revelation. Today on the podcast, we're looking at some of the most wondered about passages in the Bible.
Today on the podcast, we're reading through Revelation 8-11. The 7 trumpets of God's judgement are the big feature of this section. The 7 trumpets are the second round of God's judgements and describe God's warning to the nations to repent before it is too late.
Today on the podcast we're reading the first series of judgements in the book of Revelation called the 7 seals. These include the famous, 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse. What does all of this mean? Hope you enjoy!
We're finally cracking open the book of Revelation! This week on the podcast, we're talking about the big main point about the entire book. It might surprise you!
Today on the pod, we're looking everything Jesus and the rest of the New Testament writers say about the End Times (with the exception of Revelation. You'll have to wait till next week for that!)
The last element to the Eternity Series is a discussion on the events that begin the Eternal State. This is traditionally called Eschatology in theological studies. You may know it better as End-Times or Last-Things. We're going to spend a few weeks reading and thinking about things like the return of Jesus, tribulation, rapture, millennial views, the mark of the beast, and the antichrist. You might be surprised by what the Bible actually says about all of these things!
Today's podcast examines the theme of resurrection in both the Old and New Testaments. Resurrection and heaven are often conflated but they are not the same thing!
Today on the Big Deal Podcast, we're starting our conversation on heaven! How does the Bible talk about heaven? What are the big Bible verses?
Today Brad and Justin explain the theology of hell and confront all of the common objections people often have to God's final justice.
We're talking about Eternity on our first miniseries of season 2! Here's some examples of the conversations we'll be having in the series: What is heaven like? What does the Bible actually say about Hell? Why would God create people just to send them to hell? What happens right when I die? How long is eternity? We hope you join us on the Big Deal Podcast!
