This session from the 2025 Semper Reformanda conference features Christopher Gordon, Stephen Nichols, and Derek Thomas engaging in a candid questions and answers discussion. The panel addresses a wide array of complex topics, including the biblical permissibility of remarriage after divorce, the historical controversy surrounding Martin Luther's later writings on antisemitism, and the appeal of Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy to younger generations.
Further questions delve into the theological rationale behind Reformed worship practices, the practicalities of establishing evening worship services, and the appropriate evangelistic message for unbelievers, specifically regarding "Jesus loves you." The discussion also clarifies the distinctions between Calvinist and Arminian approaches to preaching the gospel and examines the biblical account of Samson's actions in Judges. This session offers deep theological insights and practical guidance for growing Christians seeking to understand and apply Reformed doctrine to contemporary issues.
