25 - Suffering Is Not Good
In this episode, we discuss suffering and persecution. These complex topics deal with the problem of evil and real lives of people. They often surface our presuppositions of godliness and theological anthropology.Suffering and the Goodness of God - https://amzn.to/3odUAnE“What Does It Mean to Weep with Those Who Weep?” Kevin DeYoung - https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/kevin-deyoung/what-does-it-mean-to-weep-with-those-who-weep/Support the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/

24 - When “Gospel-Centered” Isn’t Gospel Enough
In this episode, we'll discuss the idea of being "gospel-centered" as well as some vulnerabilities of a truncated gospel message. Often people use the phrase “gospel-centered” to emphasize a focus on justification and soteriology while at times ignoring larger gospel themes in the Bible. How does this play out today? Who might be guilty of this truncated gospel? What movements have popularized the idea of being “gospel-centered?”“Creational Worldview,” Andrew Sandlin - https://amzn.to/3lDVHdo“What Does It Mean to Weep with Those Who Weep?” Kevin DeYoung - https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/blogs/kevin-deyoung/what-does-it-mean-to-weep-with-those-who-weep/Support the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/

23 - Academic Captivity of the Church, Thomism, and Antinomianism with Dr. John M. Frame
In this episode, we talk with Dr. John Frame, professor emeritus of Systematic Theology and Philosophy at Reformed Theological Seminary on the academic captivity of the church, Thomism, and antinomianism. How has the church found herself captive to higher education? What is Thomism and how is it shaping theological discourse today? How should we understand the law and grace with respect to antinomianism?

22 - “Love Your Neighbor” Is the New “Judge Not”
In this episode, we'll explore how "loving your neighbor" replaced "judge not" as the latest widespread misapplication of the Bible. Jesus quotes Leviticus in Matthew 22 responding to a lawyer who tests him saying “you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” Does this apply to health mandates? How should we apply this to government orders? How are we to understand God’s law today?Andrew Sandlin - https://pandrewsandlin.substack.com/p/vaccine-mandates-and-crony-statismSupport the showSign up for the Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/chasedavisFollow Full Proof Theology on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fullprooftheology/Follow Full Proof Theology on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fullprooftheology/
