The Doctrines of Grace
At some point in our studies, all Christians must struggle with the concepts of God's perfect standard for our lives, and our relationship to Him as sinners. If salvation is by grace through faith alone, then what are we required to do, if anything? Why so some believe and others do not? What does the Bible mean when it speaks of election and predestination? How does the free will of humans relate to God's sovereign control and plan?
If you or someone you know is interested in, or struggling with these issues, we invite you to our Wednesday night class beginning this Wednesday, March 24 at 6:30 pm. Under the direction of Kevin Godin, we will examine each of the major Christian positions on these and related issues, dealing with the Grace of God in saving us, and we will evaluate each of them, based upon a study of the biblical passages used to support them.
Recognizing that these can be confusing and controversial topics to study, we will examine them at a pace that allows for questions and input from the class. We sincerely hope you'll join us and that you'll invite others to this time of study.
