Hello and welcome back to Sochiology 101.

Today we're going to dive pretty deep with regard to the doctrine of provenient grace.

Many of you who have been tuning in on a regular basis know that we have responded already once to Nicholas Neuola. Hopefully I'm pronouncing that right, Nicholas, forgive me if I'm not. I like Nicholas. He seems like a very likable young man. He's very objective. It's one of the reasons I want to respond to him. He's also bringing in some quotes that I had never seen or read before and from some notable Armenian scholars that I think really are

valuable to this discussion, which is one of the reasons I wanted to respond again a second

time to Nicholas's latest broadcast kind of going through these things where he really does unpack

why he believes I even fit within a normal Armenian or maybe not normal Armenian framework,

but at least an instrumental view of pervenient grace.

And I've said the same thing many times before.

If you define pervenient grace in the right way, then I would be considered one who supports the concept of prevenient grace.

I would not support Roger Olson or probably Jacobus Arminius's view of prevenient grace, which is the more historical perspective, which Nicholas does touch on.

And yes, I do realize I'm starting a little bit earlier than I had

projected on the YouTube to start. But as many of you know, I grab moments of time during my day

when I have some time free. And I don't know when that is some days because I'm at the

call and demand of the ministry.

And so sometimes times open up where I'm able to jump on and I jump on when I can.

So that's why it's sometimes not announced far in advance.

Also, if you have not gone to Amazon recently and purchased either, the God's provision for all, which is a positive portrayal of provisionism and the concept and idea of God's love and provision for all people, the defense of God's goodness.

He is demonstrably good.

We also talk about, obviously, the Potters Promise, which is a biblical

defense of provisionist sociology or traditional sociology, depending on what you like to call it,
