  2. Ages of Children Addressed in Proverbs

    I wanted to ask you if you know of any source that offers us any insight to the age of Solomon’s son (I’m assuming Rehoboam) when he shared these proverbs with him. We are assembling a class to teach parents about talking to their children about sex and sexual development and were hoping to use

  3. Adam’s Rib

    Many preachers have used Genesis 2:18-25 as a selected passage to read at weddings. On a number of occasions I have heard a pastor talk about the fact that God selected a “rib” in Gen. 2:21 to use to “fashion” the woman. I have heard several pastors claim that there is significance for the selection

  4. Inter-covenantal Truth and Relevance: Leviticus 26 and the Biblical Covenants

    Leviticus 26 provides a key to advancing the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants by showing how the two relate to each other. The parenthetical nature of the chapter shows its inter-covenantal character in six areas: (1) covenant, (2) law, (3) Yahweh, (4) promise, (5) repentance, and (6) revelation.

  5. “Secret” Missions

    I’m starting to think about where God is leading me to serve Him in the world. Sometimes in closed countries missionaries apparently gain entrance by telling the government that they are coming to do linguistic study or literacy or some other service.

    Sanctification is the work of the Holy Spirit and Scripture. This message was delivered on Feb 11, 2010 in The Masters Seminary chapel from various scriptures.

  7. Penal Substitution in the Old Testament

    Theologically and biblically speaking, penal substitution refers to God’s gift of His Son to undergo the penalty of death as a substitute for fallen humanity, recent efforts to deny that teaching notwithstanding.

  8. “Ur of the Chaldeans” (Gen 11:28-31): A Model for Dealing with Difficult Texts

  11. Exegetical Fallacies: Common Interpretative Mistakes Every Student Must Avoid

    Students of the Bible often make mistakes that can be avoided if they are aware of errors that others have committed. One of the errors is the “Evidential Fallacy” which fails to approach the text with the presumption that it is accurate.

  12. Eternal Security and Perseverence

    Does Ezekiel’s role of watchman suggest that believers can lose their salvation? If not, what is the message of Ezekiel 33:12-19? Read this article from Testamentum Imperium here to find out.

  13. New Covenant Theology and the Old Testament Covenants

    Though New Covenant Theology (NCT) has positive aspects such as an insistence on a biblically based theology, several aspects of the system are not so positive.

  17. The New Perspective and “Works of the Law” (Gal 3:16 and Rom 3:20)

    The New Perspective on Paul (NPP) differs from a traditional understanding of Paul’s references to the “works of the law .” Traditionally, Paul’s references to such works has been seen in a negative light, but the NPP takes a very opposite view of the works.

  18. The Eschatological Significance of Leviticus 26

    The blessings and curses of Leviticus 26 have eschatological significance because they relate to the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants. Verses 33-45 speak of retributive dispersion/exile, the Sabbath rest, the stricken remnant, and the contingency of repentance.

  19. Changes in Doctrine of Justification

    The “New Perspective” on Paul makes some significant changes to the doctrine of justification. In this sermon Dr Barrick explains these changes and their significance. This sermon was delivered in The Masters Seminary Chapel in January 2005 from various scriptures.

  20. The Necessity of Scripture

    Scripture is necessary because God willed to provide it and because mankind’s condition required it. The image of God in man requires communication between God and human beings. God’s incomprehensibility is another reason for the necessity of Scripture.
