Theology in Particular
In episode 41, Dr. James Renihan and I discuss the doctrine of total depravity. This doctrine is typically addressed first when considering the doctrine of salvation, for here the condition of man is established. What does God do for sinners to save them from their sins? We will better understand what he does when we consider his works against the backdrop of our inability and need.

In episode 40, Dr. James Renihan and I introduce a series on the doctrines of grace, also called the five points of Calvinism. Here we attempt to lay foundations that are crucial for a proper understanding of the doctrine of salvation. I would recommend that you also listen to episode 35 on the covenant of redemption. Important foundations were laid in that episode which help us to better understand the doctrine of salvation.

In episode 39 of Theology In Particular, Dr. Joshua Henson and I talk about the polemical dimension of the Old Testament. “Polemic” means a strong verbal or written attack. Dr. Henson helps us to see how the Old Testament scriptures simultaneously record true history while strongly denouncing the false gods of the nations.

In episode 38 of Theology In Particular, Pastor Tom Hicks helps us to understand and evaluate a view of the Old Covenant law known as Theonomy. This view has grown in popularity in some circles and, in our opinion, has led to some confusion. We hope this episode helps to bring some clarity to this important topic.

In episode 37, Drs. James and Sam Renihan talk about their time in and around London. They share some of the insights gained concerning our Baptist heritage while visiting historical sites and spending time in the archives. This was an interesting and encouraging conversation. We hope it is a blessing to you, the listener.

Drs. James and Sam Renihan join me to discuss the covenant which preceded all others, namely, the Covenant of Redemption. Sam has produced a lot of good material on the subject of Covenant Theology. As usual, he speaks with precision and clarity on this important doctrine.

In this episode, Dr. James Renihan answers the question, what is a Reformed Baptist? from a historical, theological, and practical viewpoint. I have found that church members sometimes have a difficult time answering this question, not because they are ignorant of who we are, but because it is hard to know where to start or what to emphasize. We hope this helps!

In this interview, Dr. James Renihan stresses the importance of holiness in the life of ministers. We should remember how Paul exhorted Timothy, saying, “Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers” (1 Timothy 4:16, ESV). Needless to say, it is encouraging to hear a seminary president stress the importance, not only of sound doctrine in the mind, but holiness in the whole of life.
