In today’s episode, Jon and Justin talk about the fact that it is God who saves sinners–meaning, he does it all. From the beginning to the very end, salvation is a work of God. He brings us all the way home. To have this conversation, the guys consider Ezekiel 36 and 37. The Lord says some strong things about our condition and about his work. May our souls be comforted in him.
Jon and Justin talk about the reality of suffering and weakness in this life--and how the thing that is most helpful to us is getting glimpses of God’s eternal plan.

What Does It Mean to Have Saving Faith?
Answered by Justin Perdue
How much faith is required for assurance?
Does Jesus Ever Turn Anyone Away?
Assurance is of utmost importance for the Christian. When a believer does not “feel” saved it can cause severe anxiety.
So many of the questions we get at Theocast come down to the issue of assurance. How do we know we will be finally saved? How is it that we have peace before God- now and in the future? We talk personally of our own experiences, make some observations about evangelicalism, and then point people to Christ and his sufficiency.
The guys continue the conversation on assurance by considering good works, the ongoing struggle with sin, and the work of Christ.

The guys continue the conversation on feelings, faith, and assurance. We also discuss Christian Hedonism and where it tends to lead.
In this episode, the guys talk about feelings. Yes, that’s right. At a prominent evangelical conference, John Piper said that it is futile to try to define saving faith apart from feelings (link). We consider whether that is correct and the fallout of that perspective as it relates to assurance.

In this episode, Jon and Justin answer the question, “What do I do if I don’t feel saved?” This is a struggle for so many of us. God tells us in his Word that we’re his children, but we often feel like his enemy. What do we do with that?
