Equal Ultimacy Exposed: The Calvinist Problem No One Can Escape

About this sermon

In this clip, Leighton Flowers, Braxton Hunter, and Jonathan Pritchett unpack one of the most controversial doctrines in Calvinism—equal ultimacy. If God decrees everything, can He truly be uninvolved in human sin and unbelief? The discussion dismantles the idea of “active vs. passive decrees,” revealing why both ultimately make God the author of sin. 📖 They explore Romans 9, Jeremiah 18, and the moral implications of divine determinism, exposing the logical tension many Reformed theologians try to avoid.
