Wow thank you Jeff for putting that across so clearly. We are saved by Grace not by works. Humility knowing God chose us.

[Avin]

Abso loved this. The power isn’t in us but in Him.

I can't even describe to you the difference between listening to someone preach the Word over and over and over when I was young and had NO ears to hear at that time, and today being multiple years into HAVING ears to hear this SAME WORD by God's grace. It absolutely ASTOUNDS ME every single time I hear the Scripture preached now when I think back to those days of blindness and NO understanding.

Thank you guys for doing this very controversial subject. I have been challenged, confronted with my own traditions, liberated in areas, and able to see the beauty of these truths by you boldness and humility. I am a associate pastor in a charismatic church and so loved by God’s grace in salvation and His sovereignty. Thank you for what you do and keep preaching truth!

Pastor Jeff,
I have heard your testimony in messages past. We have a similar testimony in that our understanding has come from the word of God alone. I never read anything from any theologians for the first 15 years of my walk with Christ. My doctrine was formed by the Holy Spirit, through scripture alone. When I read my first book on theology, it was Systematic Theology by Wayne Grudem. I swore he stole my notes.
This series has been an absolute blessing. I thank the Lord Jesus for the call that he has placed upon you. Stay in the word my brother, and the word will come out of you. You are loved and sincerely appreciated. May the grace of God keep you on the path of righteousness, for His name sake! Psalm 1

The discussion about how the gospel was proclaimed n Acts was helpful. Thanks!

[mothermovementa]

Literally, I've always said only god is 100% Free.

[robertfish]

Big difference between all knowing and all controlling. ❤❤❤❤

[TheMrjt]

This sealed the deal for me. No more questions or objections to this or that. Scripture settles all if you truly have a love for Truth. Thank you Lord.

It's pretty simple, Jesus said it 2 times in John....NO MAN can come to Jesus unless the Father draw him.

[spiritandtruth]

God does not need my permission to save me.

[Sidney]

Amazing preaching and what an amazing grace we have in Jesus that saved a wretch like me!!

[brucemercerblamelessshamel]

the gospel is not a command. it is Good News. our RESPONCE is commanded

[monew]

Praise God for the faithful teaching of His Word! 🙌🏽

[jeremywalker]

It’s almost as if instead of a gracious God working in our lives to convict us and draw us to Himself in love, grace is this thing, this force that God uses to show off with by picking and choosing certain people to be saved while not choosing the rest and He’s doing all this because He has to show off how glorious He is.

I don’t see how you can believe this is something Jesus would do. You cannot look at the life and death of Jesus and come away thinking that this is something that he would do.

[Mr.C-Mister]

It's weird that Jeff talks of not preaching for mercy at the court room but that's exactly what the defense does when a guilty verdict is handed out. It's literally called falling on the mercy of the court. Lol. Bet his kids love the 100% JUSTICE Jeff gives and no mercy.

[waynehumber]

Excellent message dear brother. I've never heard anyone ever say that they chose God with any sort of spiritual maturity.
God bless you and yours.

Jeff Durbin quotes Athanasius as one of the great defenders of the faith, but Athanasius said, "humanity is free and under it's own power, having the capacity to choose for itself what it wants" I wonder what he would have said about Calvinism?

[martinwazhere]

Thank you. This jelped me and my questions alot.

[justinrobicheau]

I really enjoyed this series on the doctrines of grace. Thank you Jeff and James for doing this. I am a 5 point Calvinist because of this series. It's biblical it's in Scripture. 😎🙏🔥
