Sinclair Ferguson: The Doctrines of Grace

Grace is a word that we hear again and again in our lives. Anyone who is affiliated with a church, whether orthodox, apostate, or even the cults, will tell you that you are saved by grace. But what exactly do people mean when they say “grace”? What is the biblical concept of grace and how does it work itself out in our lives? Which notion of grace are you operating under? The sixteenth century church rediscovered the biblical concept of grace, and perhaps nobody was able to articulate it better than John Calvin. In this message, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson explains John Calvin’s essential role in church history as a preacher and teacher of the biblical doctrine of grace.

Grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone... Thank you my triune God for baptizing me in the Holy Spirit. For turning hope into assurance. Thank you for getting me out of the religion of my youth and saving me.

GRACE IS A PERSON, JESUS CHRIST.

[@car439]

In fact the G-d The Almighty and gracious father of Jesus Christ loved the world that sent his son as Savior, that is Grace as well. When one sad to Jesus good master, Jesus does respond good is my father!

@@car439 Get some help with your writing ability. You obviously don't understand what the Bible is teaching.

Exhibition stuff...marvellous...

[@warrensmith3070]

Salvation is not a train that anyone can just choose to jump onto...no man can elect himself unto sainthood...a profession of faith justifies no-one, it's the possession of saving faith (received as a gift of grace) that justifies...and this only applies to the pre-chosen Unconditional Elect...

[@sylvestreherrera6900]

Well said.

[@vitaignis5594]

It is odd though that Scripture speaks of God desiring the salvation of ALL individuals and Jesus weeps over the state of individuals who will not come to Him. The calvinistic understanding of Scripture is a relatively NEW interpretation of Scripture and is not consistent with the teachings of the early church.

[@anniehill8661]

i don't understand why this is a reformed teaching of grace but not holding to the true KJV bible & are using a false bible! i can't share it now. I can not lead people into the erroneous bibles...

[@joeiiiful]

A false Bible????? Where did you come up with that nonsense? The KJV is a good translation but it is not perfect. Dr. Ferguson is using the ESV which is a good translation, but also is not perfect. You ought to study the subject. If you are interested, Dr. James White does a great deal of work on the subject. You are able to find his great work on KZbin.

@@joeiiiful good answer

[@douglasmcnay644]

Prove that the King James is the only perfect translation.
