Preach my word, lest their blood be upon your hands.

In...Credible. Thanks to whoever posted this. I took Gerstner for Jonathan Edwards back in Seminary and now to have access to this venerable Giant is Incredible. Belly up to the bar and slake your thirst in Classic Reformed Theology with Dr. Gerstner! Wooo hoooo!~

rejected in general revelation and again rejected in special revelation (scripture etc)

"apocryphal" in that not concerning salvation (glory of God) therefore not canon

This man was a treasure

General napalaking booster kayo sa amin dahil dilang situasyon na tunay ay inyong binabahagi kundi pati ang salita ng ating mahal na Panginoon.Lagi po namin kayong ipagdarasal.

You can tell he was RCs, mentor RC had a similar cadence

Dr Gerstner is my favorite theologian for a variety of reasons including the fact he has an infectious enthusiasm in all his lectures - this particular one is a magnificent explanation of the Doctrine of Revelation

Lord help us to be strong in declaring your Gospel,preach and teach without hesitation and descrimination so that they'll know the TRUTH.We pray in the name of our Lord Christ Jesus with thanksgiving,amen.

Thank you Lord,by the illumination of the the HS for giving us this godly person to instruct us about this Doctrine.

Church imperfections are expected to exist for we are just imperfect people but let not these imperfections discouraged us but focus on the perfections of our Lord who heads the church.

The doctrine of Providence is very difficult to understand but Dr Gerstner does a superb job of explaining it

The Westminster Confession of Faith is a great document. Thank you for this series from Dr Gertsner.

Gerstner doesn't believe this anymore 😜

I have enjoyed these talks about Edwards …. Thank you

You skipped chapter 12.

I love listening to this man; he speaks truth about God’s word

Punishment is for SINS committed...What about infants and Job in the Old Testament.

I love hearing him dedicate this to RC Sproul! I know of this man of God only through finding RC Sproul on the Internet as I was being shown biblical truth we call Reformed! Thank God for leading me into Salvation

Towards the end of this lecture opened my eyes to the doctrine of election so distinctly and in a way that can’t be refuted. No one can argue it if you revere scripture as infallible. Which it is.

15/15...Thank you HS for thy continuous illumination.

The older brother shall serve the younger. Just like with Jacob and Esau

15/15...Thank you Holy Spirit for your continuous illumination.

"Morning and evening"

I always hate when folks who are believers attack other believers in their RUclips comments. Nevertheless, Dr. Gerstner’s comments fall so far short of describing the core of Anabaptist thought that I must make the following comments: 1. There are four Anabaptist distinctives that differentiate them from the other reformation movements: Baptism of adults upon profession of faith (and the true church as a voluntary association of those baptized believers), the doctrine of the Two Kingdoms (separation of the true church from the world, and all worldly systems such as politics and civil governance), the prohibition of the swearing oaths, and Biblical non-resistance of evil (including returning good for evil, and non-participation in military activities). 2. Dr. Gerstner ignores three of these four distinctives, and incorrectly describes Anabaptist thought on the one distinctive upon which he focuses. 3. Generally the Anabaptists were more interested in obedience to Scripture than in attacking those they saw as being in error. This is exactly the opposite of the approach of most Reformed theologians, who usually seem to be more interested in attacking the “heretics” (and proving themselves as correct/proving the “heretics” wrong) than they are about illuminating truth. In this video, Dr. Gerstner clearly exemplifies this approach. 4. The Anabaptists focused upon Biblical teachings they saw as needing illumination and application, followed by obedience to those teachings. This included the administering of baptism upon conscious, decisive profession of faith accompanied by evidence of a changed life AKA repentance. For a more complete understanding of this prioritization, please see the Schleitheim Confession of Faith (from 24 February 1527), and the Dortrecht Confession of Faith (from 21 April 1632). 5. For a concise statement of Anabaptist beliefs from someone who actually knows that of which he speaks, please search online for “Anabaptist distinctives Lynn Martin” and read his posts there. FYI, my family line stems from all three of the major branches of the Anabaptist “tree,” meaning from Amish, Mennonite and Hutterite branches, dating from the 16th century. So I may actually understand a bit about what Anabaptists believe…….

Thanks for this!

Baptism cannot be a requirement for salvation. To make it such is an attack on the sufficiency of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

THEN THEY ALL HAD THE HOLY SPIRIT AT FIRST

Dr Gerstner appears to be making the case you will not be saved if you are not baptized - this is a form of salvation by works

I'm sorry,I posted on the wrong video my apology and my prayers.

I think Luther was right, many Reformers chose Zwingli which INMOHO lead to atheistic theories.

Just seeing you in that mother son scene reminds me of my wonderful memories with my late mother who was also a good cook stirs me to shed tears.Andre you are a loving son inherent in you bec.of your loving mom Olga.Take care always of her thru the mercy and grace of God.

hmm interesting view.....

You must be Holy

Thank You Lord for the work You did in John Gerstner 🙏 For the many blessings You have given to me, an undeserving sinner, Your Grace, Mercy and Love are clearly evident and i cannot be thankful enough.

Lutherans are NOT consubstantiationists! This is always a false accusation by those who do not delve deep into sacramental theology. Consubstantiation is the teaching that the two things create a new thing, and this we do not teach. We simply, simply believe what Jesus says, "THIS [bread] IS my body/THIS [wine] IS my blood." Case closed. If you reject His words here, you are literally calling Jesus a liar. Lutherans are not Magisterial but Ministerial in our biblical hermeneutics. This is the fundamental difference between us and Calvinists or Armenians. We don't need the Bible to be logical by human standards. We are sinful human beings and our brains are but specks of nothing compared to the Lord's mind. Who can comprehend Him? So, we read the Scripture ministerially and say simply, "thus saith the Lord," and even when it seems to not be logical, we assume God's logic is greater than ours.

It's so enlightening,thank you Lord for using this humble man for us to know you in depth and grow in our relationship with you by the illumination of the Holy Spirit.

What jimmy page was to the guitar, Jonathan edwards is to theology What Thomas Edison was to the light bulb, Jonathan edwards is to the knowledge of the word. What Ron Jeremy was to the adult movie industry, Jonathan edwards is to insight spiritual revelation.

Excellent. Wow, wow, wow.

“Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. For I say to you, that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.

For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

Wow❤

Lutherans do not believe in consubstaniation. We just believe is means is. No more, no less. We believe the words of Christ in Holy Scripture.

RC Sproul & him sound alike.

This is heresy!!!

To be taught by this man is awesome! I hear RC in His voice! Lol My favorite teachers

theology on fire

I’m sorry, but can we stop and take a second to admire Gerstner’s sideburns? Absolutely top notch

john gerstner is unknown giant of the faith not known here but known by the great and blessed God and thats enough

The man had not one witness that he could produce that proved he was called to teach or have authority. He died in his heresy and the Satanic laugh.
