Jesus: Man, Messiah, or More?

A new documentary online in eight parts:

Was Jesus really the Son of God and the Messiah the Bible claims, or was He merely human like the rest of us? For the last 10 years, a group of scholars [e.g., Darrell Bock, Craig Evans, Grant Osborne, Michael Wilkins] have been studying this very issue. Watch as they put forth their evidence, and then decide for yourself who Jesus really was. In the ancient region of Caesarea Philippi, an important conversation took place between Jesus and His disciples: “Who do you say that I am?”

You can view at least the first episode online for free. The complete program will be available to view Friday, March 13.

This is the greatest Bible software I have ever used and the best part of it, is that is almost entirely free. The actual program is 17 meg (KJV + Strong’s Greek) but is easily expandable as you add more resources. I have almost 5 gig of free Bibles, commentaries, dictionaries, topical books, devotionals, maps and charts. There are a few premium materials you can buy, like the NIV Bible, but almost everything is free including the ESV Bible.

Bondage of the Will

Many today build a theology around the idea which assumes that God’s commands to us in the Bible somehow imply our moral ability to keep them … but we soon forget that Romans 3:20 declares that “…through the law comes knowledge of sin.” In other words, the commands exist to reveal our moral inability, not our ability. This inability also includes God’s command of all men everywhere to repent and believe the gospel, an impossible act of natural will apart from a supernatural work of the Holy Spirit uniting us to Christ. Only the quicking grace of Jesus Christ applied by the Spirit can turn our heart of stone to flesh and illumine the Text in such a way (to open blind eyes and deaf ears) wherein we and able to see Christ’s beauty and excellency. Those who are unregenerate cannot see Christ’s excellency and thus have no capacity to love what is spiritual and so are not partly but wholly dependent on God to translate them from darkness to light. This means that man’s affections are in complete bondage to sin until Christ sets them free … and if the will is in bondage, it is not free. It chooses, not by coersion but by necessity to sin.

 Human Nature in Its Fourfold State by Augustine

Human Inability by Charles Spurgeon

We deny that choice is free, because through man’s innate wickedness it is of necessity driven to what is evil and cannot seek anything but evil. And from this it is possible to deduce what a great difference there is between necessity and coercion. For we do not say that man is dragged unwillingly into sinning, but that because his will is corrupt he is held captive under the yoke of sin and therefore of necessity will in an evil way. For where there is bondage, there is necessity. John Calvin from Bondage and Liberation of the Will, pg. 69-70.

It is rooted, not in humanity and their achievement of holiness or sanctification, but in what God has done in Christ, and for us in union with him. Rather than view Christians first and foremost in the microcosmic context of their own progress, the Reformed doctrine first of all sets them in the macrocosm of God’s activity in redemptive history. It is seeing oneself in this context that enables the individual Christian to grow in true holiness. – Sinclair Ferguson Resources Discipleship Explored
