Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, Justin and I want to explain a really important

historic distinction, the Calvinistic movement, the new Calvinism, the young restless reform,

and historic reform confessionism. We've already on two episodes, pietism and what is reformed theology, and that has led us to

this place where we have to help you understand the difference between just being a Calvinist,

or as we say, calvinelical, and the historic reformed faith.

We hope you enjoy the discussion.

Stay tuned.

If you're new to Theocast, we know that many

people who start listening to us struggle with their assurance. What does it even mean to walk by

faith or how do you rest in Christ? So we put together a free e-book called Rest. And it's where you

can learn about the sufficiency of Christ and the differences between the law and the gospel. And that's an

important distinction. If you'd like to learn more, just go to our website, Theocast.org.

Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to find their rest in Christ.

Conversations about the Christian life from a reformed pastoral and confessional perspective.

If you're wanting to know what we do, after none of that made sense, we want you to know Jesus Christ and the gospel. Clarify the gospel and then

understand your place in the kingdom. What is the purpose of it? So your host today are Justin Purdue

pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina. And I am John Moffitt. I'm pastor of

Grace Reform Church in Spring Hill, Tennessee. And Justin, for the sake of today's subject and time,

we're not even going to do announcements, brother. We're going to jump into it. How's that said?

Praise be to the Lord of hosts, man. People love the announcements, though, John. Yeah, they do. You're so good at

them. Yeah, they're so good. You've seen the title of today's episode, the difference between reformed theology and

Calvinism.
