The Scripture and the Spirit

bcq3.jpg

Joe and Jimmy discuss how we know there is a God from the Baptist Catechism, Q3. “How may we know there is a God?” The answer, “The light of nature in man and the works of God plainly declare there is a God; but his word and Spirit only do it fully and effectually for the salvation of sinners.” What does creation tell us about God? If God reveals himself in creation, why is it insufficient to lead to saving faith? How does the Holy Spirit use the Scripture to lead us to saving faith? Plus, Joe gets beat up by his wife.

Primary Scripture references: Romans 1:19–20; Psalm 19; 2 Thess. 2:13
