Luther and the Trojan Horse Jan 29, 2025

Show notes

In this episode, Dr. Paulson examines Luther's response to being accused of standing alone in church history. Luther uses the example of Elijah to demonstrate how feeling alone does not mean God has abandoned his Gospel. Likewise, Luther explains that the church embraced free will not because of Scripture but just as the Trojans embraced the Greek's wooden horse.

God has given Jonah His Word. Jonah was spit out of the belly of the whale and sent to preach this word to Ninevah. God is not asking Jonah to be transformed or giving him a second chance; instead, he is fulfilling his promise.

The Word of God in Opposition Dec 05, 2024

Show notes

The Law and the Gospel are not just distinct words from God but words in opposition. Here, Paulson discusses what it means for God's word of the Gospel to come and overturn the work of the law. The law is good and necessary, but the Gospel overcomes the death it delivers.
