The Great Exchange in the Old Testament (1)

On this program our hosts begin a new series on “The Great Exchange.” What does the Bible mean when it describes Christ’s person and work? How does his work apply to us if it happened so many years ago? Why does it really matter? What’s at stake is nothing less than the core of the […]

What’s your view of ultimate justice? If you do a lot of bad things throughout the course of your life, will you have to pay for it somehow in the next? We recently asked college students questions like these, and throughout this program the hosts interact with their answers as they discuss the increasing popularity […]

In Isaiah chapter 53 we read that the coming messiah will be despised and rejected by men. He will be pierced for our transgressions, and punished so that we may have peace. Through his anguish, God will make many to be accounted righteous. On this program the hosts are continuing to explore The Great Exchange […]

Paul in Romans 4 says that “the one who does not work but trusts in him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted as righteousness.” Yet we also read in James 2:24 that “a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.” Do Paul and James contradict each other in the matter […]

Throughout our series on the Great Exchange, we have been exploring all that Christ accomplished for us by his perfect life and sacrificial death. On this program, Michael Horton, Robert Godfrey, Justin Holcomb, and Whitney Gamble discuss how these crucial themes were developed and discussed throughout the life of the early church.

Who was Augustine, and what was his contribution to the church’s understanding of the Great Exchange? What was the state of the church throughout the Middle Ages? Was the view of the Protestant Reformers completely new on the issue of justification by way of imputed righteousness? That’s the focus of this program as Michael Horton, […]

At the heart of the Protestant/Catholic division in the sixteenth century was the disagreement over the doctrine of justification by an alien or imputed righteousness. In Catholic theology, justification is conceived as a lifelong process of becoming intrinsically righteous and holy, rather than a once-for-all declaration of “not guilty” to sinners who put their trust […]

Throughout this series on the Great Exchange, we have focused a great deal on doctrines such as justification, imputation, and propitiation in order to unpack the riches of all that Christ has accomplished for us. Yet there is still more for us to explore. Christ not only takes away our sin and gives us his […]

Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland discuss pastoral and real life implications for the five solas of the Reformation.

I’ve experienced some significant anniversaries recently. Two years ago, it was the 30th anniversary of the church I serve. Last year, it was 25 years of working with Michael Horton and Sola Media. And this year, my wife and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary.

When Peter stood up at Pentecost, his audience was entirely Jewish. What did they hear when he declared that “the promise is for you and for your children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself” (Acts 2:39)? What they heard would have immediately governed their covenant practice […]

One cannot exaggerate just how critical the sequence of events recorded in Chapters 11, 12, and 13 of Exodus is in the history of Israel, the church, and the world. What God does, says, and reveals to his servant Moses and his covenant people still resonate with God’s people today as the Lord […]
