Daily Bible Reading for Thursday, September 22, 2022

 The following Bible readings are taken from the website, Oneyearbibleonline.com. If you follow this reading plan you will read through the whole Bible in one year. I highly encourage you to do so. Also, the sermons below each section are ones that I have chosen from the website, Sermonaudio.com.

Ephesians 1 (Audio)

Sermons from Ephesians 1:

7. Friday the 13th - A Biblical Perspective, by Rev. Ian Brown [Text: Ephesians 1:3-6, and Ephesians 1:11; Romans 8:28-30]

Note: The above sermons are on Ephesians 1:4,5 and/or 11. These verses are used to support (rightly, I believe) the Calvinists doctrine of predestination. Three more sermons you may wish to check out, if you are interested in this topic, are from Rev. Cornelis (Neil) Pronk: They are as follows:

1. The Decree of Reprobation [Text: Romans 9:14-23]
2. Eternal Decree of Election
3. Objections to Election Answered

And for still further study on this most solemn doctrine, I recommend The Five Points of Calvinism, by Prof. Herman Hanko
