christology

Can anyone recommend a good (long) sermon that explains the eternal generation of the Son? I searched SermonAudio and YouTube and did not find much. Thank you in advance.

Michael Reeves in "Christ Our Life" (British edition of "Rejoicing in Christ") writes that we share in the "the life of the Son". I have some questions on this with regard to Christ having two natures, united but not mixed. Maybe some of you have similar uneasiness with Reeves writings?! I...

This thread is split from the thread "Where are the Trinitarian and Christological Boundaries", and with a similar idea in mind as "How to View the Christian East Between 780-2025". I have been exposed to two differing accounts of the Chalcedonian Controversy. The first - claims that the whole...

How do we define trinitarian and christological errors as heresy? As damnable? Those who hold them as wolves? As being outside the faith? Are the boundaries strictly theological or also ones of attitude, context, consistency and soteriological implication? How harshly do we define the following...

Love to God by Thomas Tuke (d. 1657) Thomas Tuke (d. 1657) was a prolific writer, fiery preacher and faithful reformed minister of the Gospel of Christ. Love to God by Thomas Tuke (d. 1657), is a masterpiece of devotion and self-examination teaching Psalm 31:23, “Love ye the LORD, all his...

The Puritans on the Providence of God – by Edward Corbet, William Pemble and William Gouge Edward Corbet (d. 1658) William Pemble (1591–1623) William Gouge (1575–1653) “The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the LORD,” (Proverbs 16:33). What is providence? It is...

I am still only about half-way through the book I am currently reading, but I am already thinking about what to read next. I think the next topic after the current one I am reading on covenant theology will probably be Christology. As in the person and work of Christ. What are your'e suggestions...

It seems like Calvin and other early Reformers held to the perpetual virginity of Mary. Does that teaching have any real, practical consequence? Can one be indifferent to this teaching or even affirm it without it having any significant consequence on their life and other areas of doctrine...

Sparks of Divine Glory: A Practical Study of the Attributes of God by C. Matthew McMahon (725 Pages, Linen Hardcover) Is there a good reason to study the doctrine of God? Knowing God, or not knowing God, has eternal consequences to it. The Savior came to explain the Father (John 1:18) and he...

How is it said that God purchased the Church with his blood (Acts 20:28), when God does not have blood? The answer is that it was Christ who bled, who is both God and man. The attribution of the properties of one of Christ’s natures to the other (such as in Acts 20:28) is called the doctrine...

A Devotional on Our Savior’s Death and Passion by Charles Herle (1598-1659) Charles Herle (1598-1659) was an active member of the Westminster Assembly of Divines, and, in 1646, was chosen to preside over the assembly; he was known as a deep divine, a great scholar and eminently pastoral. Every...

The Wonders of Jesus by Jeremiah Burroughs (1599-1646) Jeremiah Burroughs (1599-1646), was a brilliant Reformed preacher of the Gospel, and an astute theologian. He ministered with pastoral sensitivity and a zealous desire to glorify God in his preaching and writing. One of the more "exciting"...

Brethren, do any of you have a simple chart or a basic outline of passages where Jesus is given the same titles as God, or otherwise identified with Him? I’m thinking along the lines of “Alpha and Omega”, “Only Savior” or like a comparison or 1 Peter 3:15 with Isaiah 8:13, etc.

I know this is a topic that requires great precision, so if you know a theologian who responded to this, please give the reference. The objection is as follows: If the human will of Christ willed anything that is not conformed to His Divine will, wouldn’t that be a sin? After thinking of this...

How did Jesus view himself in the Gospels? Who is this divine Son of Man who comes down out of heaven? McMahon's new work is a practical look on Christological themes to see Christ more clearly. Seeing Christ Clearly by C. Matthew McMahon Christ is clearly portrayed in Scripture as the...

Debate between a person held in high regard by many at a discussion site, yet one very confused about the nature of Christ. The document contains active links at this site, which has numerous second and ninth commandment violations (beware).

Hello everyone, I was hoping I could get thoughts regarding these terms. 1. Do they mean the same thing? If not, what are the differences? 2. When the creeds used the term eternally begotten, do they mean something more than that fact that Jesus was begotten by the Father (clearly...
