Is God sovereign in salvation, or is man responsible? This is one of the most asked questions in theology. In this episode, we dive into Scripture to answer whether Calvinism or Arminianism is correct.
We explore key passages like John 3, John 6, Romans 9-10, and Matthew 11 to show how God's sovereignty and human responsibility are both clearly taught in Scripture. You'll learn:
✅ What hyper-Calvinism gets wrong
✅ Why human responsibility matters for evangelism
✅ How election and "whosoever believes" work together
✅ What an antinomy is (and why it's not a paradox)
✅ How to answer "Am I one of the elect?"
Whether you're wrestling with predestination, struggling with evangelism, or just want to understand what the Bible actually teaches about salvation, this conversation will ground you in Scripture.
