Welcome to Real Christianity, where our mission is to bring the Church back to the Bible.

My name is Dale Partridge and I'm the president of Relearn.org and Reformation Seminary.

The premise of this show is simple.

The culture is growing darker.

The Church is in need of sound doctrine and many Christians are hungry for the truth.

Join me here each week as we look to scripture and discover what it really means to be a Christian.

Welcome to the show.

We are finally doing audio and video if you're watching this episode on YouTube.

Welcome.

We are finally getting these things back in video format.

Last week we talked about Romans chapter 1 verses 18 through 23.

We learned the difference between general revelation and special revelation.

General revelation is sufficient to give humanity knowledge of God's existence.

It's sufficient to condemn humanity because they know that God exists, but it's not sufficient to reveal the plan of salvation.

This is why we need special revelation.

Special revelation is the act of God revealing Himself through scripture, through Christ, revealing the way of redemption, the plan of salvation.

We need general revelation and special revelation.

General revelation allows us to know that God exists in the things that are made.

We learned that last week and then we know that special revelation is the gospel revealed in Jesus Christ.

Now, these distinctions are important because we learned that ultimately humanity has no excuse for the rejection of God because God can be seen in His eternal attributes even in the things that are made.

God Himself really reveals Himself through all these things in the sense the governing of the galaxy, through the seasons, through, you know, I said last week the evaporative water systems, the functionality of our body.

All these things can be realized from our brains to understand that there is a creator who is wise and eternal and all powerful.
