The Trinity Saves! The Bible teaches that the Father elects a particular people, the Son redeems them and the Holy Spirit convicts, regenerates and unites them to Jesus Christ. The Trinity works in harmony to make certain God’s eternal will is accomplished (Eph 1:3-5; John 6:63-65), infallibly bringing it to pass.
In a recent interview, Dr. J.I. Packer was asked which theological issues he would commend young Christian leaders to study in order to be prepared for the next fifty years. His number one answer was “Regeneration.”
He said that the doctrine of regeneration has not been fully appreciated by many who do not understand that to be born again with a new heart and new nature means that we have at our deepest level a new identity and new passionate desires for God’s Word and ways. He commended to all young Christian leaders a thorough study on the doctrine of regeneration.
I’m excited to see essays on this vital theme by some of the greats in Church history become available in an e-book format. I hope it has a wide distribution.
Thanks to the graciousness of the Editor, John Hendryx, I was given the privilege of contributing one of the chapters entitled “The Wind Blows Where It Wishes.”
