(01:18) Why do so many people today lack knowledge of church history? (04:24) What can we learn from the Synod of Dort about the threat of false teaching? (07:49) How should we respond to Arminians today? (08:54) What would you encourage an Arminian to read as he or she studies these issues? (10:25) The canons are very practical, even addressing the eternal fate of children who die in infancy. Can you expand on the relevance of the canons to our everyday life? (14:40) The Synod of Dort uses very strong language. How does this instruct our defense of the faith today? (16:51) The canons condemn “curiosity.” What do they mean by curiosity, and how does it apply today? (18:48) What did you mean when you said, “If predestination is not a comfort to the people of God, it has not been rightly understood or taught”?
