The failure of modern evangelicalism is the failure to understand the holiness of God.
God’s sovereign will is not at the whim and mercy of our person and individual responses to it.
Just as the normative standard for the good and for the true is God, so the ultimate standard of beauty is God.
When the gospel is at stake, everything is at stake.
Satan can do only what the sovereign God allows him to do.
There is nothing more foreign, more alien, to our nature than holiness.
We are all servants. The only question is whom we will serve.
A holy God is both just and merciful. He is never unjust.
Satan could make an "A" in my Systematic Theology course. He knows the information and knows that the information is true.
Why would the disciples invent a God whose holiness was more terrifying than the forces of nature that provoked them to invent a god in the first place?
For the Arminian, salvation is possible for all but certain for none. In the Calvinist position, salvation is sure for God's elect.
The whole concept of providence is that God knows everything about what we do.
