The ordinance known as “The Lord’s Supper” or “Communion” is taught and practiced by most Christian churches, though the manner, the time, and even the purpose is not consistent. What do the Scriptures teach about this so-called ordinance? Is it truly for the Church, the body of Christ, during this present dispensation of grace? In this series, we examine the two primary passages of Scripture that deal with this subject: 1) the gospel accounts of Jesus’ final Passover with the apostles before His death (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) and 2) Paul’s 1st letter to the Corinthians.
These Bible messages on the Lord’s Supper were taught by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2015-2016 during the adult Sunday school class at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Total Depravity - 2
We continue looking at the Calvinist definition of "total depravity." We consider the Calvinist assertions that faith is the gift of God, and that faith is a work, looking at their primary proof text for this in Ephesians 2:8-9. We also begin a study of their proof texts for their interpretation of total depravity: Romans 3:10-11, by considering the full context and purpose of the entire passage: Romans 1:16 - 3:20.
Scripture References: Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:26-28, Romans 4:1-5, Romans 3:10-12, Romans 1:15-20
From Series: "A Scriptural Look at Calvinism"
In this series, we examine the 5 points of Calvinism, typically specified by the TULIP acronym, to see whether they are consistent with the teachings of Scripture.
