Well, my connection issues have been rectified! Here’s Week 9! Includes a short discussion on Zwingli, a short overview of Calvin, and his importance in systematizing theological study, presuppositional apologetics, and the doctrine of Sola Scriptura. (The last two were unscripted diversions, but it went with the topic nicely!)
Week 9 – The Swiss Reformation – notes – audio
Next Week:
Week 10 – The English Reformation – notes

My ftp, chat, email, or whatever will not connect, at all. All I can get is webpages – so I can’t upload the files for the Church History class yet. As soon as it comes up, I’ll post it :/

John Owen: The Death of Death in the Death of Christ – Book IV, Chap 3, scroll down to Section 3
Enjoy!

I did it again. I forgot to post last week’s audio/notes. I DID upload it immediately. I just didn’t post to link where it was.
Week 7 – Jan Hus – notes – audio
Week 8 – Martin Luther – notes – audio

Lately I’ve found myself more and more uncomfortable with certain practices in, at least, our SBC church. Which ones, you ask?
1) Raising hands.
2) Revivals.
3) Altar calls.
4) Applause after “special music.”
5) Children’s Church.
6) Skits or drama in worship services.
Now, before you get annoyed about this, let’s examine something. Baptists, as a rule, have subscribed to something called the “Regulative Principle of Worship”. What this principle posits is that only those things which have scriptural models are allowable in Christian worship. When you don’t have a Scriptural model for something – what, then, is your model? In other words – are we believers in Sola Scriptura, or are we not?
I’m thinking about doing a short series on what the regulative principle seems to say in regards to the above practices, and to see if they can accord with Scripture – for my own benefit, as much as that of others. As I have time to do so, I will. In the meantime, what do you think?

Well, we made it through week 6, but I didn’t cover as much as I’d planned, due to a bit of impromptu review.
We made it through Wycliffe, and we’ll hit Hus next week. Here’s the audio, and here’s the link to the notes, yet again.

I’m really sorry about the delay, folks.
