“It’s a prosperity movement for the millennials, in which the polyester and middle-class associations of Oral Roberts have given way to ripped jeans and sophisticated rock music,” said R.

Sept 8, 2014: 5 Pt Salt: Daniel Akin & Al Mohler’s Denial of Original Sin
Daniel Akin, president of Southeastern Baptist Seminary, along with Al Mohler have written a position on infant death. I think it’s important here to recognize that their arguments are a basic denial of original sin, namely, that all who are born in Adam as their federal head and representative are guilty of trespass before God, His Law, and stand in condemnation at birth. This is not “hyper-calvinism” but a very biblical foundation of the Christian faith – Man stands condemned because he was born in Adam!

Dr. Mohler, welcome, thanks for taking some time tonight with me to talk about this. |
