The 1689 on Adoption
Joe and Jimmy are talking about the doctrine of Adoption from The 1689 Confession, Chapter 12. In his classic work, Knowing God, J.I. Packer wrote, “If you want to judge how well a person understands Christianity, find out how much he makes of the thought of being God’s child, and having God as his Father. If this is not the thought that prompts and controls his worship and prayers and whole outlook on life, it means that he does not understand Christianity very well at all.” Why is the doctrine of Adoption so important? How is it distinct from other aspects of our salvation?

In this work Flavel digs into Proverbs 4:23, “Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.” What does it mean to “keep the heart?” How do we do it? What is the benefit of it? Plus, more arguing and a quick look in the mailbag.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/doctrine-and-devotion/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
