About this sermon
Time-Stamps: 4:05 - Begins 9:05 - Screen Shot of 'The 1689 on the Non-Elect'. 9:33 - Last Paragraph of 'The 1689 Baptist Confession of Faith' 9:55 - Doctrine and Devotion (DD) clip begins: 10:10 - We will not AND cannot come to Christ. It's not that you can but don't want to. 12:47 - DD clip 14:20 - God's arbitrary (up to the arbiter) choice. Flowers response: Humility doesn't save: God chooses to save those are humble by grace through faith. 19:23 - DD clip - non-elect are passed over. 19:56 - This means Esau was passed over NOT before he was born (not before he did anything good or bad (contrary to Romans 9)) 21:30 - DD clip - Ephesians 1 - election not based on foreseen faith 22:37 - In Ephesians, Paul is addressing 'the faithful in Christ Jesus'. If you're IN Him, you have the blessings. How do we get IN Him, though? Faith, 'when you heard the word of truth'. Paul's battle is regarding Jew and Gentile, not Calvinism vs. Arminianism. 27:33 - DD clip - Romans 9 (groups vs. individuals) 28:20 - The Corporate View of Election includes individuals (must have the OT context) 33:03 - DD clip 33:54 - Why have the Jews rejected their Messiah? 38:13 - DD clip 38:29 - Spiritual Israel is those who have faith. Flowers agrees with DD. 40:11 - DD clip 40:46 - Jacob and Esau, injustice, willing and running, and the meaning of mercy and hardening in Romans 9 45:41 - DD clip 46:02 - God determines that those who do not believe go to Hell: conditional. 48:22 - DD clip - Reprobation vs. Condemnation 48:40 - We're born under condemnation. 49:35 - DD clip - We go to Hell because of our sin, not God's choice. 49:43 - What about Romans 9:11? 51:32 - DD clip - Proverbs 16, verse 4 51:59 - Proverbs in context appear synergistic. 57:54 - DD clip 58:26 - We're chosen because we believe in Him. 59:32 - DD clip 59:44 - The Jews who stumbled haven't stumbled beyond recovery 1:00:11 - DD clip 1:00:20 - We're 'destined' to stumble IF we don't believe. God doesn't destine people to not believe. 1:03:59 - A plea to study both the Calvinistic and the Traditionalist understanding of various proof-texts. Dr. Leighton Flowers, Director of Evangelism and Apologetics for Texas Baptists, plays a podcast called Doctrine and Devotion, which is two Calvinistic brother teaching through the 1689 Confession on the topic of the non-elect, and "he was triggered!"
