thanks for all the reformed videos brother i used 2 stay away from calvinism but slowly been changin my views on theology and doctrine, and ur page has been really helpful and informing appreciate it!
The New Light/Old Light controversy got out of hand at times. My family belonged to the Reformed church at Hackensack New Jersey. Feelings had grown so intense on this subject that the church split with each group worshiping at a different time. The later group came in one day and found that all the psalters and collection bags were gone. Enraged they proceeded to tear the church down saving the bricks to build a new one. As the construction neared completion on both churches they each held back on finishing waiting to see how high the other church's steeple would be so they could build their's taller. Eight churches left the Classis(Presbytery) and formed a new one.Some failed and others joined the Presbyterians eventually. Another argument fueling the fire was the use of the Dutch language in church. The younger people favored the New Lights as well as using English. It all seems petty now.
is there anyway possible that you can communicate soon the relationship between the first Great Awakening and the revolutionary war. I Ann working on a paper and would like some feed back soon.
Don't want a theological argument, but some might see 1Co 11:26 (esp. 'shew [Gr. kataggello] the Lord's death') as underscoring the Supper as a powerful Gospel tool. Also some might blur the distinction between observing and partaking, hence the division pointed out in this lecture.
Sunshine, go away today. I don't feel much like dancing. Some man's gone he's tried to run my life. He don't know what he's asking. He tells me I better get in line.
Well Gordon-Conwell has students from 90 denominations from around the world, so we would not have a single theologian who we have to leverage, no. But few seminaries would. This is rather more me soft-spooning the works of a man whom many THINK they know about but are unfamiliar with.
You're putting me through Seminary. I love it. Thanks
Dr. Reeves has done us all a great service. Also check out the TH-cam page of The Masters Seminary for more seminary videos.

Great intro to this giant of early American Protestant Christianity.

Paul Wait are you saying you're a gnostic?
Enjoyed this. Thank you for your effort.
Could you do a video on Spurgeon and English Baptists?
Absolutely. That's one of my next ones in the pipeline :)
Thanks Ryan, and thanks for reading and replying. God bless
Great idea!

Too bad Gordon Cromwell doesn't promote Edward's theology, or does it ? There seems to be a more seeker sensitive approach.
