Delivered on: 3 December 2017

To be reformed is to be about the Bible as a story of God's historic redemption in Christ which is advanced and understood by distinguishing covenants (grace and works or law and gospel). This covenantal story is about three actors working together who are Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Another important factor in understanding the gospel is something known as the doctrines of grace which are also known as the five points of Calvinism. The first two key points is that of total depravity and unconditional election. However, the question needs to be asked concerning how we get this unconditional election. The truth of definite atonement tells us that those God elected to save apart from their works are saved by a cross that worked an actual and full and real salvation for God’s elect. God’s cross was not a potential event for all but an actual saving event for some. It is this kind of cross that gives unconditional election its grounding. (Various Scriptures)
