The Westminster Confession of Faith (Chap. 1) with John Gerstner

The Westminster Confession of Faith has, for hundreds of years, served as the doctrinal foundation of the Reformed churches. In this series, Dr. Gerstner focuses his lifetime of scholarship on a comprehensive treatment of the meaning and application of this important confession for the life of the church. This is an exceptional series for pastors and church leaders.
This is the 1st in a series of messages by Dr. Gerstner on the the Westminster Confession of Faith. See other videos in the series: • The Westminster Confes...

I see where dear R.C. picked up his mannerisms and speech patterns!

[@ezequielarce8079]

Clear like water :) I like it

[@felicityzeeman9212]

Spot on there but I do love Gertsners rumble in his throat when he wants us to take it in more.

[@xxx1909]

Yess!!

[@markpbanksmusic]

Slobbery 😂

[@The_Silver_Fox]

Yes, indeed. R.C. Sproul was one of my teachers in seminary and I had already been listening to him some years before that. Imagine our surprise at the sem when John Gerstner came one time as a guest lecturer and we saw all those familiar mannerisms and speech patterns of which you spoke. It was a chicken or egg moment, for sure!

[@noidprivate8945]

I think if you closed your eyes you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between him and RC! The way they hang on certain words, even the way they write on the blackboard 😂 is exactly the same! The way they taught the Gospel Will be forever remembered! RC The Holiness of God was one of the first books I read when leaving the JW cult and it helped me understand so much! Thank the Lord for people like John Gerstner, he must have helped so many people come to a understanding of the Gospel. The Holy Spirit truly working in him!

I wanted to like this video twice

[@pastorjon1251]

This is how theology SHOULD be taught... with fire! The inspired Word inspiring our minds and hearts...(Jonathan Edwards would have been proud of "his boy"...)

[@jidejohnson9449]

Good Lord I love this!

[@dddoyle]

Decades ago, my children heard Dr Gerstner’s voice while driving around in the family van (hand out church history and handout theology) and were all able to do a growly, wheezy Gerstner impression.🥰

[@Joannlynne808]

is this RC’s pastor? He truly reminds me of RC!

[@lkae4]

🤣 What happened to the real men of the pulpit? Most preachers today are so flavorless and passionless and so keen to the tickling of ears.

[@josephscottadams39]

This guy really gets your attention. Now I know how R.C. Sproul is such a great communicator!

[@richardbradwisch9454]

Really great stuff!!! College education for us layfolk. Thank you so much.

[@josephdavis8017]

This most wonderful teacher & preacher would convince me instantaneously of becoming a Christian on the spot. No other expositor of the Word of God has the immense power and presence of spirit as Dr.Gerstner had. Now I see where our beloved R.C.Sproul got his zeal. God bless both of them for speaking the Truth. Amen 🙏

[@jankragt7789]

Excellent. Wow, wow, wow.

[@franklinbumgartener1323]

I love me a man who gets all excited over the Westminster Standards, just like Dr. G does in this video. Thank you Lord!

[@tonyromero8284]

Thank you for this wonderful post

[@fadihajjhassan6492]

Amen

[@Amilton5Solas]

Wow!! This is deep!

[@yahwehrapha987]

Good example of a man who could be smug and critical yet the love of God permeates through that distinct raspy inspiring voice of his.

[@seanleeduncan]

This was good. I’ve never seen this guy before but his gesticulations and vocal inflections remind me of RC Sproul.

[@MrBomb-rj7mr]

Sproul was his student.

[@seanleeduncan]

@@MrBomb-rj7mrOh cool!!

Something a little R. C. Sproul Like in this man🥰

[@wanda520]

Gerstner was his mentor.

[@hawhee]

I hear RC Sproul .

[@starsareangels7]

It’s written down so it can’t be corrupted… they didn’t see Mandela effect coming unfortunately

[@chrisfreeman7936]

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

[@khristalalpensepai9439]

WHY YOU ALWAY USED THE WORDS GREASTEST AND MOST IMPORTANT?

[@ashzole]

i am filled with the holy ghost . may i lay my hands on myself?

[@ashzole]

@@Tom30ad john was filled with the holy ghost. He prophesize to peter and thomas. They spoke in tongues one on to the other. Peter and thomas prayed and the spirit of the holy ghost was upon them. Jesus appeared and said to his disciples, come on to me for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. lololllol that is the true meaning of the new testement. lolol
