In this unique 13-minute show, Bob Wilkin and guests discuss issues that are vital to justification and sanctification, while keeping those issues distinct. Topics discussed include assurance of salvation, evangelism, eternal rewards, problem passages, perseverance theology, Calvinism and Arminianism, how to interpret Scripture, eschatology, and current issues in Free Grace Theology.

The Doctrine of Eternal Rewards–(related to 2 Cor 13:5-7)
This week we’ve been discussing the context of 2 Cor 13:5-7. Bob and Shawn have proven that this passage is not about salvation, but eternal rewards. Today they compare 2 Cor 13:5-7 with 1 Cor 9:24-27.

What is Really Happening in this Text? (2 Cor 13:5-7)
Bob and Shawn continue the discussion on 2 Cor 13:5-7. What is the approval and disapproval mentioned in this passage? How do we know if we are approved or disapproved?

Why 2 Cor 13:5-7 is Not About An Eternal Salvation Examination
Today we begin a new series called “Testing Yourself–Approval & Disapproval”. In our Spring 2020 issue of the Journal of the Grace Evangelical Society, Bob wrote an article about 2 Cor 13:5-7 which is an often misrepresented passage. It’s not a salvation passage; why do popular teachers say that it is?

Will Committing Suicide Send a Person to Hell?
Bob and Shawn tackle a difficult subject today. Are there eternal consequences for committing suicide if you’re a believer? Romans 12:2 tells us we need to have a “renewed mind”. What does that mean and how are we to apply it?
Share:
What is Meaning of “Believe” or “Not Obey” in John 3:36?
What does John 3:36 say about believing and obeying Jesus? Bob and Shawn clarify the confusion sometimes caused by certain teachings of this verse. Plus, what is the meaning of “love me” in John 8:42? And, why do some people seem to experience a radical conversion and others don’t?

What does the Holy Spirit do to bring unbelievers to Jesus? In this two-part discussion, Bob and Shawn talk about special revelation, how Satan works to deter people from believing, and what it means to believe.

Discipleship: Should a Church Have a Discipleship Program?
Does the Bible tell us that churches should be providing a discipleship program? Bob and Shawn discuss this important question in light of 2 Tim 2:2 and the role of the church as a whole, as well as the elders in the church. But do we have a personal responsibility for discipleship as well?
Share:
What is the Meaning of the Parable of the Two Sons?
What does the phrase “The will of the Father” mean in all of its uses in the Gospels? Bob and Shawn discuss belief in the Messiah and the ways people wrongly interpret what He gives and what His death accomplished.

Is a Chronological Understanding of the Old Testament Necessary Before Salvation?
Do you have to understand the story of the Bible to have eternal salvation? Some missionaries teach that you should. Bob and Shawn offer some great insight into this interesting discussion. The Bible doesn’t tell us one way to evangelize but we have to make sure Jesus and the everlasting life He gives is the focus on how to be born again.
