After two January episodes with Patrick Szalapski, he returns to do another "Essential" with us this month. This time it is the Doctrine of the Incarnation. We discussed this more briefly in episode 9 (January 2009) for the episode that covered seven "Essentials of the Christian Faith."
In October 2010, Dr. James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries in Phoenix, Arizona was in town for the Signet Ring Ministries "Chosen" conference. The evening before the conference, I had the pleasure of sitting down with him to discuss Sola Gratia, as well as the topic of the conference: God's Sovereign Grace.
During the course of conversation, Dr. White explains Sola Gratia as a doctrine of the Reformation which was brought about to counter the Roman Catholic doctrine of Prevenient Grace. He then went on to describe Sovereign Grace from a Reformed perspective and contrasted it with "Free Grace." He gave his primary texts for support of the Sovereign Grace point of view: Titus 2, and 1 John. We discussed "moderate Calvinism", how it's a misnomer, as well as hyper-Calvinism. Dr. White then described some of the practical implications of coming to an understanding of Sovereign Grace. He also talked about works that he recommends on Election and Sovereign Grace. My favorite question was to ask how to explain these things to a three-year-old.
