Thank you Reformed Forum for some amazing videos ❤
One video i would love to see is an interaction with Kenneth Gentry on his major new commentary on Revelation called "The Divorce of Israel". This commentary is probably up there with Beale, Osborne etc.
Much love.
Canada here. Thanks for this video. Interested to learn more about French Christianity
Frenchman over here 👋🏻 I recommend you look in the works on Calvin of Dr Henri Blocher. He is a French reformed Baptist theologian who was awarded an honoris causa doctorate from WTS
oog-noe [French pronunciation] or hyoo-geh-not [English pronunciation] makes sense. A hybrid "hyoo-geh-noe" is weird. ;)
I started reading the esv bible, then reading Calvin's commentary after each verse...somewhere in genesis Calvin said people should not go back to using slaves...which stuck me funny seeing the Atlantic slave trade in Portugal was probably just starting up then? thats the only timeI read something from Calvin about slavery...someday I have to finish his commentary in full...I ussually just jump around with them on certain verses I want more clarity
Thanks for posting this. We rarely ever hear about Calvin in Canada.
A question - Where was Christianity lived prior to Calvinism's invention in the 1500's? To believe Calvinism is the gospel means church history is dominated with the false gospel of the Catholic faith found in the church fathers and church councils contrary to Jesus' promises to protect the church from error through the power of the holy spirit.
Calvinism requires an accompanying truth claim concerning the veracity of Jesus' promise to preserve the one, holy, Catholic and apostolic church, not found in Calvinism, developed 1500 years after Jesus.
It can be found in Augustine. Even Thomas Aquinas was a "predestinarian". So call it Calvinism or Augustinian theology but the gospel has been found even in the Roman Catholic church before the reformation, just that the Council of Trent outlawed the gospel for good in the institution of the Roman Catholic Church
@@hewziheng4587Not to mention, the Reformers sought to retrieve sound, Patristic teaching, not to re-invent Christianity.
Not sure if you are familiar with his Institutes or with his 1535 letter to Francis 1st. It would be helpful to have read the well referenced rebuttals by Calvin of the early modern suggestion that he was being original.
@@altnamaren1 The Papacy, Jesus real presence in the Eucharist and the seven sacraments are all well founded in the church fathers and councils prior to Calvinism's denial of such issues central to the gospel. Calvinism not only denies obvious truths found everywhere in church history, Calvinism promotes many false ideas including -
1) Calvinism promotes a fictional eschatology based upon a false penal substitution atonement theory.
2) Calvinism promotes an atonement theory presupposing the denial of the priesthood needed to confect the Eucharist and fulfill John 6.
3) Calvinism teaches double predestination to heaven and hell without any biblical passage referring to the predestination of the damned.
4) Calvinism teaches Sola Scriptora denying the authority of the Catholic church.
5) Calvinism teaches the infallibility of the scriptures is a fabricated truth descriptor, when the scriptures are inerrant and not infallible.
6) Calvinism denies the inerrancy of tradition and church infallibility.
7) Calvinism denies apostolic succession.
8) Calvinism denies Papal supremacy and jurisdiction over the church.
9) Calvinism denies the authority of ecumenical councils.
10) Calvinism promotes private interpretation over binding church authority.
11) Calvinism invents its own Calvinist tradition not found in church history or any other Protestant denomination.
12) Calvinism makes no claims of universal jurisdiction required of the one true church to guide Christians in all matters of faith and morals.
13) The Calvinist denomination does not have the four marks of one, holy, catholic and apostolic church required of the church Jesus founded.
14) Calvinism teaches God predestines sin.
15) Calvinism is devoid of any authentic Church authority without reference to apostolic succession.
16) John Calvin was not a prophet, or apostle sent by God to re-invent or bind any believer to Calvinism.
17) Calvinism is based upon a subjective reading of the biblical text, avoiding other alternative readings incompatible with Calvinism. Calvinism has no biblical proof even though Calvinist affirm interpretations of select verse supporting Calvinism.
18) Calvinism teaches a false Eucharistic theology contrary to the Council of Trent.
19) Calvinism affirms the role of ministers who are non ordained lay ministers without any sacramental powers to confect the Eucharist.
20) Calvinism denies the need for the sacrament of extreme unction to forgive sins (james 5)
21) Calvinism teaches justification by faith alone concluding to universal damnation, for there is no faith in the afterlife.
22) Calvinism is based upon the sins of pride and presumption concerning the elect of God granted without reference to free will and active cooperation with grace.
23) Calvinism is based upon despair contrary to Christian hope concerning the salvation of most of humanity who according to Calvinism have been damned before existing by God's predestined plan for the non elect.
24) Calvinism probably teaches faith is an instrument of justification, when faith is only an act or a habit.
25) Calvinism is contrary to the church fathers who were thoroughly Catholic, holding to the Papacy, bishops, priest, the seven sacraments, tradition, church councils, free will, and purgatory.
26) Calvinism teaches JEsus went to hell of the damned during his three days between good Friday and Easter Sunday to atone for sin. The doctrine requires a false belief in Jesus making a payment to the devil, when no such payment was ever made.
27) Calvinism is a closeted humanist system of works required to verify the elect status measured by the accumulation of mammon, verifying divine favour.
Many other points could be made against the Calvinist system. Calvinism is definitely a human invention.
@@Eric_Lichtenberg The church fathers were thoroughly Catholic, holding to the Papacy, bishops, priest, the seven sacraments, tradition, church councils, free will, and purgatory contrary to the reformers.
If the reformers sought to re-discover the church fathers, why invent the five solas not found in the church fathers?
Deformed theology.
