Carlos, Hiram, and Tim announce Pastor Hines’ departure from the ThornCrown Network and discuss the alleged conversion of Kanye West. Is Kanye a true Christian? Is it too soon to tell? Has he passed the Rich Young Ruler test?
Carlos discusses Joshua Harris’ recent apostasy beyond the surface level by examining his book, Dug Down Deep. The conclusions may surprise you. Several topics are discussed in a critical, systematic theological fashion, including youth ministry, salvation, justification, sanctification, works, the flesh, repentance and faith, Lordship Salvation, bibliology, transcendence and immanence, confronting opposition, grace alone, law and gospel, and more!

Our hearts and prayers go out to brother Richard Bennett’s family:
Heidelberg Catechism Q. 26.
What believest thou when thou sayest, "I believe in God the Father, Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth"?
A. That the eternal Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (who of nothing made heaven and earth, with all that is in them;a who likewise upholds and governs the same by his eternal counsel and providence)b is for the sake of Christ his Son, my God and my Father;c on whom I rely so entirely, that I have no doubt, but he will provide me with all things necessary for soul and bodyd and further, that he will make whatever evils he sends upon me, in this valley of tears turn out to my advantage;e for he is able to do it, being Almighty God,f and willing, being a faithful Father.g

This week SRR welcomes Gary Edwards back to the show for an in-depth discussion of Lordship Salvation. Join us for another exciting episode as Carlos Montijo returns to the show to give his perspective on the issue. Also, learn what a cyber-turd is and how not to be one because Carlos may call you out. The discussion gets spicy as Carlos and Gary find themselves disagreeing about repentance and faith. Fortunately, nobody has to be called a heretic in this episode. Rather it is a great example of brothers engaging in fruitful productive dialogue. Thank you for tuning in this week.
